Latest: Finally got to actualy turn on furnace. "Kerplat!". Goes on for two minutes, starts gurgling, goes off.
Call Beehive. Seems the hose that's supposed to direct condensate to pump was reversed. Explaination: " These units come either equipped w/hoses in one position for upward venting furnace and another inverted hose position for sideways vented furnaces." Ours is sideways. Vented through house siding.
Gee, ya'd think they'd check the furnace inside and see which a'way the hose was? I mean considering they already knew the thing was going to be vented sideways. Ya think?"
And after all these little and big bloopers, the owner kept telling me it was jeeeeest fine to put the heat on before any inspections were done. Yeah, right. And even though his insurance would cover the cost of any lawsuits brought by mysurviving family members, that wouldn't have done me and my family living in my home a helluva lot of good if we'd asphixiated or the house burned down now would it.
I don't know why, call me paranoid, but I sense this isn't the last of the problems we're going to have with this furnace or this company. And, there's still next summer to look forward to when we have to turn on the air conditioner they installed. Oh, Joy! JL.
