KennyFKINPowerz Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 Does anyone know of someone who does heating and cooling work on the side? My sister in law's furnace has been down for 3 days and needs someone to give her a good deal on fixing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xlr8tn Posted February 13, 2013 Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 furnace is a pretty simple machine really....no way you can trouble shoot it for her? I've fixed mine several times due to problems here and there. Mine is under the house in the crawl space so you can imagine how big a pain in the ass that thing is. I would start at the thermostat and work your way from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KennyFKINPowerz Posted February 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2013 She is in Obetz by UPS right off alum creek dr and 270. I could probably help her troubleshoot if I knew what to ask. I know nothing about them though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
944s2 Posted February 14, 2013 Report Share Posted February 14, 2013 is it coming on then shutting off right after the gas fires? If so clean the carbon off the sensor with a dollar bill and it will fire right up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id help if I wasnt so far away in dayton. I didn't know shit about a furnace when I bought my house. Now there's very little I can't do to it. I've replaced the tstat, induction fans ( I have 2), induction fan relays, vacuum tube, burners, ignitors, main board ect ect. Trust me....it's not rocket science. When you have a furnace in a crawl space you're going to learn to work on it or spend a small fortune in repair bills. Damp and dusty conditions are not optimal for a furnace. If I would've known more about this stuff going in we wouldn't have bought this house for that very reason alone. Tstat calls for heat>main board turns the induction fan(s) on>fans pull vacuum that closes relay> mainboard turns on ignitors and gas> burners light>thermocouple verifies flame that's basically it in a nutshell......start at the beginning of that and trouble shoot your way down the list. The order of the last few steps could vary depending on the ignitor/thermocouple set up but still basically the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
