Setting blower speed
Following up on my register temperature issue yesterday.
A couple of people have suggested to look at blower speed. Mine is set to, "Don't stand near the cold air ducts, you'll get sucked in!" That is, the fan seems to be running at high speed when the furnace is running. I can find no fan speed control, either on the unit itself or at the thermostat. The only fan controls are at the thermostat and those consist of two selections, AUTO and ON. I realize that the fan controls may be in different places for different units, and I apologize for not being able to provide an exact model number, but what would be the telltale signs of a fan speed control? What would one look like? As I said, there is nothing either on or in the unit that is so obvious as to say "Fan Speed Lo Hi Off." There's a gas valve behind the access panel. That's it. |

If there's no electrical way to change the blower speed, it can be done by changing belt and pulley sizes (assuming a belt drive arrangement). That's usually a job for a furnace technician, however.
