My furnace blows cold air all day
Hi , I'm trying to figure out why my furnace started blowing cold air , it ran fine all winter then all of a sudden the home started getting cold and the air coming out of the registers got cool. I looked outside but the unit wasn't running so I think it is just recirculating air in the home without heating it. Any ideas on what I should check next ?

I'll be there in a few minutes. I'm just across the street at a neighbors home because my kids and pets were freezing. The furnace is about 15 years old. It was new when I bought the home. I change the filter on regularly.

I'm here now and still have the neighbors connection. Any ideas ? Anything I else can tell you ? The unit is a Goodman model number GMP 075 but I can't see the other numbers they are scratched off.

First you said it was out side,
the model you posted is for a indoor furnace. Confirm location of furnace.

No I must of confused you. I said I checked the unit outside which is my air conditioner because it felt like the air conditioner was running I thought maybe it was running so I checked it to see if it was running for some reason. The problem seems to be with the furnace not working.
