In the scanpan manufacturing process, the non-stick compound is actually imbedded into the material that makes up the cooking surface, unlike cheaper cookware where the Teflon coats the Aluminum base. The only way that fumes will be released from this material will be if the non-stick compound actually breaks down from excessive heat. (e.g. the pan is left empty on full flame for extended periods).

Is there anything that can be done about that "new paint" odor?

Action Enterprize - Frequently Asked Questions
Some paints have stronger odors than others. Typically oil-based paint (often used on interior trim and doors) has a distinct odor and proper ventilation is required. Latex (water-based paint used on walls) paints are usually less strong and the odor dissipates faster. We have some suggestions for minimizing the odor, but can't guarantee their success. Often the best bet is to air out the room(s) for as long as you can.

If, in addition to the flood, moisture is entering slowly through the foundation or floor, then the condition will be chronic unless you stop it, say, by sealing the concrete. And you can't go wrong with a dehumidifier.
