I live in a condo and have a magic chef ac/heater in unit. The unit is about 4 years old. I have notice that the air coming out of the vents is not warm at all. seems to be blowing room temperature air. I took off the front cover to see if I can feel any heat. It was blowing heat. It was blowing heat like your car does, so I dont know if that is warm enough. but everything out of every vent is not warm at all. anybody know what the problem could be. Thanks for the help

Im not trying to fix this myself. I just want to know how hot is the air supposed to be coming out of the furnace. I dont think I should be able to stick my hand in where the air blows cause it should be hot. it has been really cold here like 4 degrees. just sitting here freezing

About 30 to 60 degrees warmer than the air going into the furnace. I.E. if your apartment is 60, you should get 90 to 120 coming from the registers after 10 minutes of operation. That is with a gas furnace. If you've got a heat pump, it'll not be that warm. You'll blow air that is 10 to 30 degrees warmer than incoming air depending on the temp. outside. Is the thermostat setting being satisfied?

Its a electric heater. Its been in the teens here for the last couple days and the furnace will just run all day and night if I leave it on 70. even when it is 30-40s it will not come out hot but it will shut off if I have it at 72.Originally Posted by wahoo
My buddy said it might be the ducts getting cold. since my ducts run across the exterior of the house. but its not really that warm even when its not that cold out. It also seems my electric is not high like it usually is during winter
