Incense Fumes?

I know birds are extremely sensitive to fumes, so I wanted to make sure of something before I did it. I was wondering, if I have my bird in a room with the door closed and fan going, and had incense burning in a nearby room with that door also closed and fans on, can the incense fumes still get to my bird?

Yes the fumes can get to your birds, so burning them is a NO NO

You just really can never keep things airtight...Would not want to try to play russian roulette with some incense & find my bird's lifeless body on the bottom of the cage paying for my mistake!

If you can smell it the answer is no and even if you can't it's still no. The heating/cooling vents in residential buildings are connected unless specifically built otherwise. No candles, no room deodorizers, no sprays - nothing, nada, niente, zilch.
