## 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](https://elviraoceanair.com/furnace-repair-ca/) |
| Heat pump | Reversing valve, defrost control, refrigerant leaks, outdoor fan | [Heat pump repair](https://elviraoceanair.com/heat-pump-repair-ca/) |

## No heat at all: what to check before you call

1. Thermostat on "heat", set above room temperature, with fresh batteries if it uses them.
2. The furnace switch (it looks like a light switch near the unit) is on, and the breaker is not tripped.
3. The filter is not clogged.
4. 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](https://elviraoceanair.com/heating-installation-ca/) and [furnace installation](https://elviraoceanair.com/furnace-installation-ca/).

## 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.
