Newbie Furnace smell

Hey all. I just became the proud owner of a 1995 B190! Im excited to get this thing on the road and camping so Im sure Ill have lots of questions.

First one is about the Furnace. It seems to work pretty well but just smells like old dirty air. Is there an air filter that needs changing? Or is there a way to clean the piping or any other parts to get it smelling like new again?

Thanks for any help!

If it hasn't been used in a while (even just over the summer), the first time you fire it up, it has to burn off all of the dust that has collected on it, and that will certainly smell. But it should go away before too long.

If it keeps smelling after running a while, I'd worry that something got in there...I found a mud wasp nest in mine, for example.
