After a few minutes of the alarm sounding, I’m usually able to get it to go off by running my ceiling fans, opening windows and waving a towel under the alarm itself.
Although there is some smoke rising from the pan, I don’t think it’s an excessive amount. It’s happened now several times in the past month or so.
So do you think it’s the vent, or the smoke alarm (or both).?
Thanks for any advice.

I didn't read what others have written but why don't you give the fire department a call. They will probably be able to give you some insight into what is causing this and how to correct it.
