New Stove Smell

Well last night I shut the power off to my stoker. Emptied my ash's vacuumed up around my boiler.
Filled my barrell at went to bed. Woke up this morning to a 59 degree house. Brrrrrr.

Some dumbass left the power off when they went to bed.

Anyway I fired it back up this morning. It ran hard for 1.5 hours. More than it has since I started it up. Now I have that smell of new paint/oil on pipes burning off. Like it smelled when I first started it. Is this going to happen everytime I run it hard? Or does anyone else experience this?

I notice that when my Channing gets over 400 degress I can smell that new stove smell. I wouldn't worry about it.
