Yes. Because of the heat loss, your home will not warm up at the rate that it should, meaning your heating installation will have to work harder and run longer to try to reach the desired temperature.

A furnace installation blowing cold air can mean you have a clogged air filter, there is a problem with the ignition process, or the thermostat is set incorrectly.

Common reasons for this include leaking ducts, a clogged air filter, or a blocked or closed vent that is not allowing the heat to reach the rooms in your home.

Rattling and banging noises specifically indicate a loose part in the system or a damaged blower motor. You should call for heater repair in this case.

An initial burning smell can be from dust burning as the furnace turns on and should not last long. If a burning plastic smell or rotten egg odor is persisting, this can mean an electrical part is melting or there is a gas issue that needs to be treated immediately.
