Why is my heater blowing cold air?
When a heater blows cold air, these are the usual causes, from simplest to most serious:
- Thermostat set to "fan on" instead of "auto", so the blower runs between heating cycles.
- Dirty filter that makes the furnace overheat and shut its burners off while the fan keeps running.
- Ignition or flame sensor fault: the furnace tries to light, fails, and locks out.
- Heat pump in defrost, or a heat pump with a failed reversing valve that is cooling instead of heating.
- Leaky attic ducts that cool the warm air before it reaches the room.
Check the thermostat setting and the filter first; if the problem stays, we find and fix the cause with an up-front price.
Furnace repair or heat pump repair?
Furnaces and heat pumps fail in different ways:
| System | Typical failures | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Gas furnace | Igniter, flame sensor, inducer motor, pressure and limit switches, blower | Furnace repair |
| Heat pump | Reversing valve, defrost control, refrigerant leaks, outdoor fan | Heat pump repair |
No heat at all: what to check before you call
- Thermostat on "heat", set above room temperature, with fresh batteries if it uses them.
- The furnace switch (it looks like a light switch near the unit) is on, and the breaker is not tripped.
- The filter is not clogged.
- The furnace door is fully closed; a safety switch stops the furnace when it is open.
If all four are fine, the fault is inside the system. Do not keep restarting a furnace that locks out repeatedly.
Emergency heating repair
We offer 24/7 emergency heating repair for no-heat calls on cold nights, especially for homes with babies, older people or anyone unwell. If you smell gas, leave the house and call the gas company before anything else; if a carbon monoxide alarm sounds, get everyone outside and call 911.
When to replace your heating system instead
A cracked heat exchanger, repeated failures in the same season, or an old furnace paired with a failing AC are the usual signs that replacement is the better buy. We price both; see heating installation and furnace installation.

Heating repair questions
Why does my furnace turn on and off every few minutes?
Short cycling usually comes from a dirty filter that makes the furnace overheat, a dirty flame sensor, or a thermostat in the wrong spot. It wears the furnace quickly, so have it checked.
Is a burning smell normal when the heat first comes on?
A dusty smell for the first few minutes of the season is normal. A smell that stays, or smells electrical, means turn it off and call.
