Whether it&#8217;s a new dishwasher or refrigerator, new appliances promise improved efficiency and a fresh start. However, that excitement can quickly turn to concern when you notice an unexpected and unpleasant odor coming from your new purchase. You&#8217;re not alone if you&#8217;ve asked yourself, &#8220;Why does my new appliance smell odd?&#8221; In this article, we&#8217;ll explore common reasons behind these strange odors and provide practical tips to help you resolve them, ensuring your appliance performs at its best from day one.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Important:<\/em><\/strong><em> The information in this article may not apply to your specific appliance model. We recommend consulting your manufacturer&#8217;s documentation or <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/repair-help\/\"><em>contact us<\/em><\/a><em> with any questions.<\/em><\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why new appliances smell strange<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>It&#8217;s not uncommon for new appliances to release unfamiliar smells during their initial use. These odors can range from chemical or plastic-like scents to musty or burnt smells.\u00a0 Some common causes of odors in new appliances are:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Manufacturing residue:<\/strong> Chemical residues from manufacturing processes can linger on internal parts, leading to unusual smells when the appliance is first used.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Packaging materials:<\/strong> Styrofoam, plastic films, and adhesives used in packaging can emit odors if not completely removed before use.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dust and debris:<\/strong> Dust accumulated during storage or transit can burn off when you operate the appliance, causing a burnt smell.<\/li>\n<li><strong>High-temperature burn-in:<\/strong> Appliances like ovens may need a burn-in period to remove protective coatings applied to heating elements.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tips for resolving odors in specific appliances<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>New washing machines<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Your new washing machine should leave your clothes smelling fresh, not add an unpleasant odor. If you&#8217;re experiencing strange smells, here&#8217;s how you can address them:<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Clean the drum and dispensers<\/strong><\/h4>\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Remove any shipping bolts or packaging materials as per the manufacturer&#8217;s instructions.<\/li>\n<li>Wipe down the drum, door seal, and dispensers with a soft cloth dampened with warm water and mild detergent.<\/li>\n<li>Run an empty hot water cycle with a cup of white vinegar or a washing machine cleaner to remove any leftover odors.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>For more detailed guidance, check out our article on<strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/b\/how-to-fix-a-washing-machine-that-smells-bad\/\">How to Fix a Washing Machine That Smells Bad<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Check for proper installation<\/strong><\/h4>\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Make sure the drain hose is properly installed. An improperly installed drain hose can cause sewer gases to enter your machine.<\/li>\n<li>Verify that the machine is level to prevent water from pooling and causing musty odors.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>New dishwashers<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>A new dishwasher should enhance your kitchen experience, not detract from it with bad smells. Here&#8217;s what you can do:<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Run a cleaning cycle<\/strong><\/h4>\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Before your first use, run an empty dishwasher cycle with a dishwasher-safe bowl filled with white vinegar on the top rack.<\/li>\n<li>This helps remove any leftover manufacturing residue and neutralizes odors.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Inspect and clean filters<\/strong><\/h4>\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Locate the dishwasher filter at the bottom of the unit.<\/li>\n<li>Remove and rinse it under warm water to remove any debris or residue.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>New refrigerators<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Your refrigerator is essential for keeping food fresh, but a strange odor can be off-putting. Here&#8217;s how to freshen things up:<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Allow for adequate ventilation<\/strong><\/h4>\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>After installation, let your refrigerator run empty for several hours.<\/li>\n<li>This allows any manufacturing odors to dissipate before you store food inside.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Clean interior surfaces<\/strong><\/h4>\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Mix a solution of baking soda and warm water.<\/li>\n<li>Use a soft cloth to wipe down all interior surfaces, including shelves and drawers.<\/li>\n<li>Baking soda helps neutralize odors effectively.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>New ovens and ranges<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Noticing a peculiar smell when using your new oven or range for the first time? It&#8217;s a common occurrence, and here&#8217;s how you can handle it:<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Perform a burn-in<\/strong><\/h4>\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Remove any packaging materials and stickers from inside the oven.<\/li>\n<li>Set the oven to a high temperature (around 400-500\u00b0F) and let it run for about an hour.<\/li>\n<li>Ensure good ventilation by opening windows or turning on exhaust fans during this process.<\/li>\n<li>The burn-in process helps remove protective coatings on heating elements that can cause odors.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>If you have a gas range and notice a gas smell, it&#8217;s important to address it immediately. Refer to our guide on <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/b\/gas-range-smells-like-gas-top-5-reasons-and-fixes-with-video\/\">Gas Range Smells Like Gas: Top 5 Reasons and Fixes<\/a> <\/strong>for detailed steps.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Check gas connections<\/strong><\/h4>\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Make sure all gas connections are tight and secure.<\/li>\n<li>Apply a soapy water solution to connections; bubbles indicate a gas leak.<\/li>\n<li>If you detect a leak, turn off the gas supply immediately and consult the appliance documentation.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>New trash compactors<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>While less common in households, trash compactors can develop odors if not set up properly. Here&#8217;s how to keep yours smelling fresh:<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Install properly<\/strong><\/h4>\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Make sure all packing materials are removed from inside the compactor.<\/li>\n<li>Check that the air filter or deodorizer (if equipped) is installed correctly.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Regular maintenance<\/strong><\/h4>\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Wipe down the interior with a mild detergent before first use.<\/li>\n<li>Use trash bags recommended by the manufacturer to minimize odors.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>For ongoing issues, our article on <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/b\/how-to-troubleshoot-a-trash-compactor-that-smells-bad\/\">Troubleshooting: Trash Compactor Has Bad Odor<\/a> <\/strong>offers helpful tips.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Embrace the fresh start with confidence<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Thanks for sticking with us!
