Moving the smoke detector would be rather difficult. They are wired together so one one goes off they all go off. It is located about 8 feet away in a nook just off the kitchen. I figure it must be the oils in the fries they are using today that are better for you. Problem these safer oils are going to give me a heart attack when the smoke alarms all start screaming again!
I'm going to swap detectors with the bedroom one and see if it is less sensitive.
So far the fries are the only things we have found that set it off, besides the one burnt, smelly smoky pan that was inadvertently turned on. I don't know who the guilty person was who did that. :whistling2:
I'll get the model and make soon. I'll have to go to the basement and haul a ladder up to be able to reach the detectors.
You probably have an ionization alarm, and it is doing what it should do. Clear the air around it, and enjoy the fries.
I figured most residential detectors were these types. But what little I know about smoke detectors could fit into a thimble. I'll need to dig out the manuals for these things and see.
