Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Do this first — it takes two minutes: if it's safe to do so from outside, note whether the smell is near the unit only or spreading through the room. Past that point, a gas smell is a safety emergency, not a repair question, so leave the area, call your gas utility's emergency line, and only bring in a technician once it's confirmed safe.
