Hey group quick question. I have a standard furnace, nothing fancy, but the problem I'm having is that the blower runs beyond cool down to the point it cools the house down after heating the house, starting the next heating cycle that much sooner. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Has it always done this, or is it something new? What model furnace?

Check for a 3"x5" aluminum box on the front of the furnace above the burners. If you have one (you may not) then turn off power and remove the cover CAREFULLY. If you see a dial, look at the pointer that's indicating the smallest number on the dial... maybe 80 or 90. There will be a middle pointer and one more in the higher numbers (180). Set the low number pointer(your fan off temerature) to 10 degrees higher than its current setting. See if that helps.
