Furnace blowing cold air — Madrid, Madrid
When your furnace runs but only pushes cold or lukewarm air through the vents, the problem usually lies with the pilot light, flame sensor, gas valve, or a clogged air filter that triggers a safety shutdown. A certified HVAC technician can diagnose the root cause and restore heat, often in a single visit.
Waarom dit veel voorkomt in Madrid
Madrid's continental climate demands both: substantial winter heating for sub-zero nights and increasingly powerful summer AC for 40 °C+ heat, so many homes run dual systems that double the maintenance burden. F-Gas certified technicians are required for refrigerant work, and demand splits into an autumn heating-prep peak and a late-spring cooling-install rush, with installer waits at both.
