Possible Causes
Improperly balanced duct dampers, partially blocked supply ducts, undersized return near Tappan furnace, dirty filter
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Use caution when accessing ducts in attics or crawlspaces.
Steps:
- Replace the furnace filter to ensure maximum airflow.
- Check all supply registers to confirm they are open and not blocked by furniture.
- Locate manual dampers in the ductwork (often with small handles). Adjust them to increase airflow to colder rooms and slightly reduce to warmer rooms.
- If certain ducts are crushed or disconnected, have them repaired or replaced.
