We have a gas furnace and get a "hot" smell, not terribly unpleasant - after
a few minutes we don't notice it anymore, only in the transition between
not-using-the-furnace and using-the-furnace. No hooting from the CO
Detector, either. It's been that way for years; we've come to associate the
smell with the onset of winter.

At night we turn the furnace down to 55 and in the morning turn it back up
to 70. Every morning there is a distinct odor when the furnace first
kicks
in. We've cleaned the burners to no avail. This doesn't happen when just
the fan is turned on, only when the burners ignite.
Any ideas?
