What is that smell coming from my heater?

Admin · Nov 12, 2013

I just had to turn on the heater and the entire house has a sour smell. It happens every year to everyone I know, but I've always wondered, what is that smell?

Dust, bugs, lint, hair, dead skin, stuff thats accumulated on the heat exchanger.
