    Any number of smells can come from a heating system. It could be from something on the exchanger, a plastic wire for example. However, Carbon Monoxide is ODORLESS and will kill you quickly. If you think you have a crack, get it looked at FAST.

I have a gas pack and I need to find out if the heat exchanger is under warranty. It is a comfortmaker, Mod# PGAA24DIKG, SN L973826975.
