Problem using my wok on a gas stovetop [View all]

I have the round base that raises the wok from the flame. I have the wok under high heat. But after five minutes, or sometimes minutes after I'm done, the carbon monoxide alarm goes off.

I get it. I'm smothering the propane gas expended.

Aside from removing the CO2 alarm from the wall or using a desk fan on the counter, what can I do to neutralize the alarm?
