Cabin heater taking too long? 850 97

I've had this `97 850 T5 for about 9 months now. The heat vents inside take a loonngg time to warm up. I'm wondering if this is normal, or if something is wrong. I've never had an 850 before (experience with a 780 and 240, both warmed up pretty quick).

This car has the duel zone climate control, and if I set both dials to one notch below max heat it takes around 12-15 minutes in 40 degree (F) weather for the hot air to start coming out. I have the fan control set on Auto, Recycle off, A/C Auto.

Any ideas/info?

Thanks,

Dave
