The Salem Fire Protection District was called back to the Martin Smith home on Lakedale Drive just before midnight due to a smoke smell.
Firemen say a fan in a small heater had overheated causing the smoke smell. There was no actual fire.
Firemen did check the rest of the home following an electrical fire in the attic last week that caused some fire damage and forced firemen to pull down part of the dining room ceiling to reach it.
