Smoke Detector Problem

My smoke alarm started going off recently for no apparent reason. When I fan it with a towel, it stops. Any ideas?

I believe, if I remember correctly, that you need to replace the batteries. When low, the alarm goes off. Hope this helps (01/05/2010)

I have had problems with a detector that went off and I found spider webs inside. I cleaned them out and problem solved. You might check for that.
