Why are my vents blowing cold air when the heat is on?

Your Air Filter Is Dirty Clogged air filters could be causing cold air to blow out of your vents. A dirty air filter can block airflow over your furnace’s heat exchanger, which can cause it to overheat.

Why is no heat coming out of my vents?

Dirty air filters restrict airflow, which can make it feel like not much heated air is coming out of your vents. Closed or obstructed vents can also cause it to feel like the furnace isn’t making enough heat, because not all of its hot air makes it through the vents into your living areas.

Why is my air working but not my heat?

Why is my furnace running but no heat is coming out?

Dirty filters are the most common cause of furnace problems. Dust and dirt restrict airflow—and if the filter gets too clogged, the heat exchanger will overheat and shut off too quickly, and your house won’t warm up. If the blower is running but no heat is coming out, replace the filter.

Duct sealing. HVAC vent dampers are valves in your ducts that control airflow in your air duct system. When open, air flows freely; when closed (or almost shut), there’s little or no airflow.
