This may be a sign that your furnace requires attention. Read on to discover reasons why your furnace is blowing cold air.
Your Furnace Has Not Warmed Up
Whenever it is the beginning of a heating cycle, you will get a blast of cold air when you turn on your furnace. Much like when you first turn on a faucet, cold water is going to flow out at first rather than hot. As your furnace warms up, it must first push out the cold air before warm air will blow out of your vents. If your furnace blows cold air briefly, this is likely the explanation. However, if warm air does not follow the cold air after a few minutes, it is time to call in an expert.
The Thermostat Setting Is Incorrect
Ensure the thermostat is set to “AUTO” instead of “ON”. When the thermostat is set to “ON”, the fan will continuously run even when the furnace is not in a heating cycle. This means that the fan will blow cold air throughout your home, instead of warm. The thermostat should always be on “AUTO” to ensure that the fan will only blow during a heating cycle.
The Flame Sensor Is Dirty
The flame sensor detects whether or not your furnace’s gas burners are lit. A dirty flame sensor will keep the gas burner from staying lit, and cause the burners to shut off. This results in cold air blowing from the vents, as the furnace does not have a heat source. Unless you are familiar with furnaces, a dirty flame sensor should always be cleaned by a professional to restore heat.
Your Furnace's Pilot Light Is Out
Especially if your furnace is older, cold air is a sign that the pilot light is out. If you are comfortable doing so, follow your furnace’s instructions on how to relight it. If the flame goes out again after a few minutes, contact a professional as technical work is likely necessary.
Your Furnace's Air Filter Is Clogged
When the air filter is clogged, airflow is restricted. Restricted airflow can cause your furnace to overheat. When your furnace overheats, this shuts down the burner resulting in cold air. Always replace a dirty air filter to ensure your furnace is functioning properly.
These are a few possible reasons why your furnace is blowing cold air. Be sure to schedule your routine furnace maintenance to ensure your furnace is safe to operate this winter. If you need any assistance with your furnace or home heating equipment, do not hesitate to contact our team at JOB Heating & Air Conditioning.

David Dram has been involved in the furnace and duct cleaning industry since 2014, and he is passionate about what he does, especially the benefits he brings to his customers' health and wellness. After gaining knowledge and expertise with a few other companies and learning both the good and bad of the industry, he recognized it was time to go out on his own. He wanted to do things differently, with his vision, purpose, and a goal to provide unparalleled service and professionalism.
We all know there’s always "a guy or gal that can do it cheaper," but we all know when you compromise on price, you generally compromise on quality. So David wanted to change that perception and offer honest and friendly service, great quality work, all at a fair price for Saskatoon consumers.
Breathe Better Indoor Air Quality is truly a family-owned and operated business. In addition to running a growing and successful business, David has four children!
David is also the Commanding Officer of the #300 Fisher Royal Canadian Air Cadet Squadron in Biggar. He has been involved as a CAF officer for 10 years, taking command last October. Although David was born in Flin Flon, Saskatoon has been his home since childhood, and he strives every day to make a difference in indoor air quality and personal health for residents and businesses of Saskatoon and the surrounding area.

This series of articles highlights the businesses that have been with TrustedSaskatoon.com since we launched in 2011. We want to thank them for trusting our team and recognize each of them individually for providing 10 years of OUTSTANDING service to the public of Saskatoon and surrounding areas! In this article, we celebrate and recognize Jeff and the team at JOB Heating & Air Conditioning—Trusted Saskatoon Furnace, A/C, and Saskatoon Plumbing Pros!
We are pleased to celebrate JOB Heating & Air Conditioning, a Trusted Saskatoon partner for over 10 years!
The JOB Heating & Air Conditioning team is well known for their Ssakatoon air conditioning, furnace, and plumbing work for residential and commercial customers. Jeff Bolton worked up from employee to partner, and he is now the trusted face of the company, which currently has six employees. Jeff has been in the HVAC and Plumbing industry since 1989. With his many years of plumbing and heating expertise, he has a clear vision and commitment to always putting the customer and his community first. Spending many years as a volunteer serving the community's greatest needs has given Jeff the right balance of drive and determination to do the right thing. He has a big heart and is dedicated to always putting the customer's needs first. He prides himself on JOB’s record of integrity, honesty, and service, and he takes being trusted very seriously.
As Jeff would say…”I do what I say and say what I do!”“One of Jeff’s biggest challenges over the years has been competing with kijiji’s plumbers and other HVAC companies that don’t abide by reasonable industry standards or even properly insure or register their businesses. Companies that are often run by folks that over promise and under deliver, they often undercut on price to get the job and end up not delivering on the service. Many try to make it up by high pressure sales on work or products the customer may not need. This is the total opposite of how Jeff and his team operates and as someone who was ripped off by an unscrupulous company myself I am wary. I am happy to say that I have used JOB personally several times over the last 10 years and the experience is always stellar."
- Sara Wheelwright, Trusted Founder
The JOB Heating & Air team also prides itself on being recognized as a leader in water heating system technology for new in-floor and boiler installations in Saskatoon. Jeff is passionate about what he does, and his enthusiasm is infectious. What you see truly is what you get with Jeff. He is authentic and cares deeply about always leaving a good impression with clients. It is obvious that he values and supports his team. That’s why he wanted to create a business where people love to work!
When asked what drives Jeff, he explains his mantra around the shop.
“We do every job as if it was our own mother’s house. We treat each other (my coworkers) with respect and dignity and that just becomes the way that we treat everyone, especially our customers.”
A great example of why JOB Heating & Air Conditioning has been a 10-year Trusted Saskatoon Partner.

In their latest article, they discuss tips to keep your furnace from triggering your allergies this fall.
Though furnaces do not cause allergies, they can be a culprit for making them worse. When summer ends and you switch your heat on for the first time, all the dust and allergens that have built up in heating ducts end up traveling through the ventilation. This impacts air quality in the household. In keeping allergies away, good air quality is key. Here are a few tips to keep your furnace from triggering your fall allergies.
1. Replace Your Furnace Air Filter
HVAC filters are designed to collect allergens. In order to do their job properly, they need to be replaced regularly. A clean filter is more effective at catching allergens and will improve the overall efficiency of your furnace system. Replacing your HVAC filter regularly is one of the best ways to reduce allergies and ensure everyone in your household can breathe easily.
2. Clean Your Air Ducts
Like HVAC filters, allergens collect over time in air ducts. Air duct cleanings are the best way to ensure these allergens are not spread throughout your home. Investing in air duct cleaning on a regular basis will help ensure good air quality so allergies do not become worse.
3. Routine Furnace Maintainance Reduces Fall Allergies
Routine furnace maintenance is a key step to ensuring your household’s air quality is up to standard. Before switching on your heat for the first time, it is beneficial to have a maintenance inspection to solidify that your filters and air ducts are clean and that your furnace is in good working condition for the colder months. Ensuring your household’s furnace is properly maintained is a great way to prevent low air quality and help keep allergies at bay.
These are just a few tips to keep your furnace from triggering your allergies this fall. If you need any assistance with your furnace or home heating equipment, do not hesitate to contact our team at JOB Heating & Air Conditioning.

.
Clogged air filters are the primary cause of cooling system problems. Is it time to replace your air filter? Learn from the experts at JOB Heating & Air Conditioning the effects a clogged air filter has on air conditioning systems.
Clogged Air Filters Cause Air Conditioning Units to Work Overtime
The Air Conditioning unit must work harder when the air filter is clogged with dirt and debris. This is to compensate for the blockage of airflow. When the air filter is dirty, the air conditioning unit must work overtime, which is ineffective at cooling the home. Replacing the air filter every 3 months will protect an Air Conditioning unit from becoming damaged and can eliminate potential failure.
Clogged Air Filters Increase Energy Consumption
Clogged air filters increase energy consumption, which leads to higher energy bills. Because air conditioning systems rely on a blower fan to recirculate air, a dirty air filter can use up to 15% more energy. The more clogged the air filter is, the harder the fan has to work to draw cool air throughout the home. A clean air filter will allow the air conditioning system to function efficiently, saving energy and cost.
Clogged Air Filters Cause Inadequate Cooling of Your Home
Air conditioning systems rely on a blower fan to recirculate air. When the air filter is clogged with dust and debris, the blower fan must work harder to pass air through, resulting in reduced airflow. When airflow is reduced due to a clogged air filter, the air conditioning system must work harder to cool the home. The system will also have to run longer to cool the home to the desired temperature level.
Clogged Air Filters Contribute to Poor Air Quality
When the air filter is clogged, dust and debris are recirculated back into the home. Poor indoor air quality results in allergies and is problematic for people with respiratory conditions. Replacing the air filter ensures the air conditioning system will recirculate the cleanest air possible. A fresh air filter from JOB Heating & Air Conditioning will improve indoor air quality for you and your family this summer.
