I have baseboard hot water heat and it started smelling like something was burning. I have 4 zones and one of the zones is kept at about 67 degrees. It has been on recently because it has been quite cold. Today is very cold and that is when the odor started. Any ideas on what could be happening and is it safe in the house?

The most likely cause and easiest correction is to clean out any accumulated dust that may have settled on the radiator fins and any enclosures, if there are any.
