( I have seen papers left inside furnaces that manage to make it to the blower). You also might be able to speed up the blower. Last and not likely is that it may be over firing and that would require a service tech with a manometer to check the gas pressure at the burners while firing. Hope this helps. I would also recommend getting a thermometer and getting an accurate temp reading.

thank you for the informative reply. My unit it only a few weeks old. Wouldn't think it would be a performance issue..... but wouldn't rule it out. i will definitely google or youtube how to check all these issues.
