I woke up in the early hours of this morning, and there was a really strong chemical smell coming from downstairs - the closest thing I can think of is the smell of shoe/boot polish. We've searched everywhere for the source & can't find anything leaking. CO2 detector is working & is fine. Does anyone have any ideas what this could be? Should I just call out a plumber to check the boiler (though the smell wasn't coming from that side of the house, more like from the downstairs loo) or could it be electrical?
We opened all the windows overnight (brrrr) and the smell has lessened this morning, but I'm worried in case it comes back overnight again.
