I have a few furnace questions.

First to get furnace going I put thermostat on furnace what about fan? Does the heat come on hot quick or does it take a while? It seems like it was like warm. At first the air came out from registers and then just ceiling fan. Just trying to make sure it is working properly before leaving for New York next week.

Make sure your thermostat is on "Auto" instead of "High" or "Low." No air should be coming out from the ceiling vents while the furnace is running.

If your TS looks similar to this select FAN and continuously press +/- to display AU (HI/LO are the other selections). When furnace is selected (high enough temp set) the fan will come on and there will be a delay for heat to come out registers. Conversely the fan will continue to run for a short time after the temp set has been reached and the heat has shut off.

I will add if this is the first time running a new furnace make sure to open all the windows and remove the smoke alarm battery's. Then run the furnace for 20 or so minutes. When they build the furnace they use oil on the metal. The first time you run it the oil will burn off. You don't want to do this the first time you need heat.
