    Temperature rise on a furnace

    When checking a temp rise in heating on a 90% single stage furnace if rated furnace rise is 35-65 and temp rise reading is above 65 will speeding up the blower solve the problem or should I be looking in other areas also?

    OP...have you applied for pro membership? If not your missing lots of stuff you can't see.

    Also, we can not discuss technical issues in depth in the open area of the forum so your missing out.

    Can someone explain this 15 post rule. Does it mean anyone can get into our pro section? When I applied, I had to send in all sorts of licenses. Has this changed?

    No it does not, they still must provide proof that they are in the industry.
    The 15 posts just keeps someone from joining, asking a few questions and leaving. (As most Diy's and homeowners would do)
