daisy, you might get a slight smell as the fire heats up, it is only the newness of it,but it should go after a few days, if it doesn't get it checked, but all should be ok.

Sometimes the paint residues or dust burning off. Lasts a day or so.

For safety's sake buy a carbon monoxide detector. A friend of mine decided no to do so and is left with a permanent brain injury.
