Furnace question

MY 09 3075 RL furnace fan runs for about 45 seconds before you can feel heat . When heat comes out it is good and warm. Anybody else have a problem like this?

That's the proper function

For safty, the furnace does a "purge" cycle to make sure there is no trapped gas before starting the igniter, and opening the gas valve

I'm not sure, but there may even be an air flow sensor in the system to verify the fan functions, before igniter and gas

Daily Double,
Kilch123 has given you the correct information. The fan comes on and blows for a short while before the gas gets ignited. Shortly after that the air starts to warm up just as you indicated.

I just had to replace the control board on my furnace because the module that tells the fan what to do had quit working. Thus no gas ignition. The furnace on our rig is very difficult to remove. Once it is out the process is very simple and straight forward.

Thankfully your furnace sounds as if it is working correctly. Enjoy.
