I have an Airstream, which is known for sticking windows. I have a silicone impregnated cloth that I use to wipe down the window seals on all of the windows before leaving on a trip, and thereafter if I find one of them sticking.
If the emergency escape window sticks during an emergency, you better believe I will hit it with enough force to open it or break it.

If your smoke alarms are 10 years old just replace them. They have a 10 year life span. New ones have 10 year batteries so when battery needs replacing you simply replace the whole thing. Nice not having to listen to it chirp every few months when the battery gets low.
Not all new smoke detectors have a lifetime battery, although some do. The packages, of course, say what power is needed. (Many also are intended for hardwire installation and those use 120V power with a battery backup.)
I replaced the old smoke detector in my motorhome (and indeed the old, nonfunctional, disconnected by the previous owner CO detector) with combo smoke/CO detectors. As they were at opposite ends of the RV, I figured it wasn't a terrible idea to detect both dangers in both places. The smoke detector part, at least, works plenty effectively at finding miniscule amounts of smoke from cooking. ๐
