If your "canned air" is the Costco Dust Off variety, the compressed gas is NOT AIR but "difluoroethane", a greenhouse chlorofluorocarbon.  Just saying, Dust Off is not air.

Have had ours go off several times for no apparent reason (propane was turned off).   I'm wondering if the detector goes off when the battery is low.   Anybody know?

I have a 2016 Pod last summer mine did the same thing no matter what I did to silence it, wouldn't stop. My 80lb dog looked to have come out of her fur. So after airing out the camper we settled down to watch TV. Again it went off, so unscrewed the cover cut the to wires.  Just reattached it this week no issues happen yet going camping this weekend time will tell.
