Furnace blowing cold air — Valencia, Valencian Community
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 Valencia
Valencia averages 300+ sunny days per year and summer temperatures regularly exceed 35 °C, making air conditioning near-essential rather than optional — AC failures in July–August are true emergencies. The city's proximity to the sea creates a corrosive saline air environment that degrades outdoor condenser units faster than inland locations. F-Gas certified technicians are required by law for refrigerant handling (RD 115/2017), and demand for certified installers spikes sharply in spring, creating booking waits of 2–4 weeks.
