I have a smoke detector in my loft which has cathedral ceilings and the heat sometimes gives false alarms. Anything I can do to minimize false alarms?

false alarms really happens but in that case most smoke detectors now has the false alarm button which when pressed quiets unwanted alarms for atleast 15mins. That's why some households finds them annoying.Or sometimes, they give the alarm due to some interruption on their AC supply or a weak battery.
