Answer: Why Is Smoke or a Burning Smell Coming from My Furnace Vents?
A burning smell when you first turn on your furnace for the season is usually normal — dust that has settled on the heat exchanger and burners burns off after a few minutes. However, persistent or strong burning smells, smoke from vents, or unusual odours indicate a problem requiring immediate attention. Possible causes include electrical component overheating, blower motor failure, debris on the heat exchanger, or melting wire insulation. If you see smoke or smell a persistent electrical burning odour, turn off your furnace and call for emergency service.
