🔥❄️ Furnace Fan Runs But No Heat? Your Heater May Not Be Igniting ❄️🔥

🔥❄️ Furnace Fan Runs But No Heat? Your Heater May Not Be Igniting ❄️🔥

If your furnace is blowing air but the house stays cold, the blower fan can still run even when the heating side is not working. This is a common call we get in winter—many systems will keep circulating air, but the burners (or heat strips) may not be turning on, or a safety control may be shutting the heat down.

At Uptown Heating & Air Conditioning, we track down the real cause fast and restore safe, steady heat.

⚠️ Common Signs
✔️ Air is moving from vents but it’s cool/lukewarm
✔️ Thermostat says “HEAT” but temperature won’t rise
✔️ Furnace tries to start, then stops
✔️ You hear clicking/ignition attempts
✔️ System runs longer than normal with little to no heat

⚠️ Most Common Causes
✔️ Thermostat set to FAN ON (runs fan nonstop) instead of AUTO
✔️ Dirty/clogged air filter restricting airflow (can overheat and shut burners off)
✔️ Dirty flame sensor (burners light then shut down)
✔️ Weak ignitor or ignition failure
✔️ Limit switch tripping (overheating protection)
✔️ Gas supply/gas valve issues (gas furnaces)
✔️ Control board, wiring, or safety switch problems

✅ Quick Checks You Can Do Safely

Set thermostat to HEAT and FAN AUTO

Raise temp 2–3 degrees above room temperature

Replace the air filter if it’s dirty

Check the breaker and furnace switch

If it still won’t heat, don’t keep resetting it—constant retries can cause lockouts and more wear.

🔥❄️ Furnace Turns On But Shuts Off After 30 Seconds? (Ignition Problem) ❄️🔥

🔥❄️ Furnace Turns On But Shuts Off After 30 Seconds? (Ignition Problem) ❄️🔥

If your furnace starts, you hear it try to light, and then it shuts back off quickly, that’s often an ignition or flame-sensing issue. The system is trying to heat — but a safety control stops it when it doesn’t “prove” flame correctly.

At Uptown Heating & Air Conditioning, we diagnose it fast and restore safe, steady heat.

⚠️ Common Signs
✔️ Furnace starts, then shuts off in seconds
✔️ You hear clicking or repeated ignition attempts
✔️ Heat comes on briefly, then stops
✔️ Furnace keeps trying to restart

⚠️ Common Causes
✔️ Dirty or failing flame sensor
✔️ Weak ignitor
✔️ Gas pressure / gas valve issues
✔️ Dirty burners or clogged orifices
✔️ Draft/venting problems affecting combustion
✔️ Control board or wiring issues

If it keeps trying to ignite, don’t keep resetting it — it can cause more wear and lockouts.

🔥❄️ Furnace Won’t Turn On? Here Are the Most Common Reasons ❄️🔥

🔥❄️ Furnace Won’t Turn On? Here Are the Most Common Reasons ❄️🔥

If your furnace is completely dead — no heat, no warm air, and it won’t start — don’t panic. Many “no start” problems are simple, but some require a professional to keep the system safe.

At Uptown Heating & Air Conditioning, we diagnose it fast and get your heat back safe and reliable.

✅ Quick Checks You Can Do First
✔️ Thermostat set to HEAT + temperature higher than room temp
✔️ Check the air filter (replace if clogged)
✔️ Make sure the breaker is not tripped
✔️ Confirm the furnace switch is ON (looks like a light switch)
✔️ For gas furnaces: confirm the gas supply is on

⚠️ Common Causes When It Still Won’t Start
✔️ Ignitor failure
✔️ Dirty flame sensor
✔️ Pressure switch / venting issue
✔️ Control board problem
✔️ Blower motor or capacitor issue
✔️ Safety switch tripping

If it won’t start, don’t keep resetting it — that can cause more damage.

🔥❄️ Furnace Blowing Hot Air, Then Turns Cold? Don’t Ignore That ❄️🔥

🔥❄️ Furnace Blowing Hot Air, Then Turns Cold? Don’t Ignore That ❄️🔥

If your furnace starts off warm but then the air turns cool or lukewarm, the system may be overheating, short cycling, or losing airflow. This is an early warning sign that can turn into no heat when you need it most.

At Uptown Heating & Air Conditioning, we diagnose the real cause and get your heat back strong, steady, and safe.

⚠️ Common Reasons This Happens
✔️ Dirty/clogged air filter restricting airflow
✔️ Furnace overheating and tripping the safety limit
✔️ Blower motor slowing down or failing
✔️ Dirty blower wheel or coil restricting airflow
✔️ Burner shutting off due to flame sensor issues
✔️ Thermostat or wiring problems
✔️ Duct restrictions or return air problems

💡 Tip: If your filter is dirty, replace it first — but if the problem continues, it needs a professional check.

🔥❄️ Furnace Turning On and Off Too Much? Short Cycling Can Lead to a Full Breakdown ❄️🔥

🔥❄️ Furnace Turning On and Off Too Much? Short Cycling Can Lead to a Full Breakdown ❄️🔥

If your furnace keeps starting, stopping, and restarting every few minutes, that’s called short cycling — and it’s one of the fastest ways to wear out your system. Even if it’s still heating, it may be struggling with airflow, safety limits, or a failing component.

At Uptown Heating & Air Conditioning, we find the real cause fast and restore safe, steady heat — before the furnace shuts down completely.

⚠️ Common Causes of Furnace Short Cycling

✔️ Dirty or restrictive air filter
✔️ Overheating from poor airflow (dirty blower / coil)
✔️ Flame sensor dirty or failing
✔️ Blocked vents or closed registers
✔️ Thermostat location issues or wiring problems
✔️ Gas pressure or burner issues
✔️ Limit switch tripping (system protecting itself)
✔️ Oversized furnace cycling too quickly

Short cycling today becomes no heat tomorrow — and can damage major parts.
