I've noticed that my gas cooker (oven and hob) smell strange when I put them on just this minute. They do not smell of gas, but rather similar to some kind of chemical smell...Its odd, I can't figure out what the problem is.
Any thoughts?
Answers: There are a quantity of answers but you might want to have a repairman transport a look to be safe.
The usual sent of gas that you smell is in truth a chemical added to the gas so that you can smell it. It is possible the chemical is a bit off for some principle.
Also possible and more likely imho, is that something is burning that you can not see. Maybe slice of the unit that lights the flame.
Peace & be past the worst please!
lead base paint maybe?
