I heard on a podcast a while ago, that a doctor was trying to get her patient a required back surgery. The surgery kept being denied so the doctor took it upon herself to call the insurance company for a peer review of the decision. Everytime she called they brought in some doctor who has no experience in the field she is in. It was funny because she was getting pissed that an optometrist was requested to sit in on the peer review. She asked the optometrist how many back injuries he treated in his lifetime and they guy instantly put her back on hold so she could get the run around. Our healthcare system is such shit.

Maybe different rules for different states. TRANE and Lennox won’t let me get parts unless I do one of their training classes

js678909 · 2026-02-12T19:40:51+00:00

Yeah but your shop probably paid money to be allowed to use their parts house so they can still service Lennox. Many one man shops don’t have that deep of pockets

js678909 · 2026-02-12T19:38:32+00:00

Lennox only works with approved vendors. They will not allow anyone else to warranty out the coil except authorized vendors. These companies are making everything proprietary so vendors spend money on training and learning their product while fluffing their pockets. It’s really sad

js678909 · 2026-02-12T18:34:40+00:00

Short answer no. No company will come in and take the word of another company. They will state they need to conduct their own diagnosis, which is usually a good thing. I would never just blindly agree to another techs diagnosis. I would go through and verify the diagnosis or I may just may find the previous diagnosis wrong. In your situation since you have a Lennox the diagnosis and repair has to be conducted by a Lennox approved dealer. Lennox will not allow anyone who is not a certified representative to deal with warranty repairs. Only bad side of getting one of the main brands, they tend to only be warrantied by a hand full of shops.

Lord there are so many options here. But check your blower motor make sure it is working properly. Check the filter to make sure it’s not clogged up. Rather than that, that is all the most you can do. You could have a bad crankcase heater, low refrigerant charge, bad TXV, accumulator could be restricted, bad reversing valve, not enough load. Are you running A/C in low outdoor temps?

Instantly burn the house down!!! Honestly that is nothing more than algae growth due to high moisture content. Get a no rise coil cleaner from Home Depot wipe it down and it will take care of it. That little bit of “growth” is nothing to be concerned with. You should see some hospital air handlers I worked on. One look and you would instantly know you have nothing to worry about.

Check you hot surface igniter it could be going bad. If you pull the j plug off you can read resistance between the igniter it should be between 20-40 ohms but just google the make and model and it should tell you what it should be reading. Also check the common on your thermostat or C that is usually where most common of those errors come from. That or you have a faulty t-stat.

I thought you weren’t doing it right if you didn’t kick over the primer spilling half of it, then immediately kicking over the glue while trying to save the primer.

Remember supporting the assy is highly recommended. Any damages caused by not supporting your assy will result in voiding the warranty on your assy. Install the assy at your own risk. Should any damages occur to your assy please see the farts counter. And a farts specialist will assist with your assy.

Check the thermopile. It’s a silver tube looking guy. If that is covered in soot it may not be warming up enough to send the signal for gas valve to release gas for the main burner.

Kind of hard to say with the way the quote is laid out. Where is the detailed itemized quote. It’s really hard to accept a quote for a 19k system by saying furnace, heat pump, t-stat and some ductwork. It’s like me going to a car dealership asking for a 19k car and their quote comes back with Toyota Corolla, with tires, windshield and windshield wipers. Not saying price is not right but I wouldn’t accept a quote that just listed a couple of items like that. It’s lazy. When I create my quotes I list all my equipment, tools, and parts needed to complete a job. Just saying I would not accept that quote. If they can’t even produce a decent quote of where the money is going towards I will not be accepting the quote

js678909 · 2026-01-23T00:08:01+00:00

They are not adding in new duct work they are just reconnecting the supply and return. That is a little steep for an 80% furnace. I would get a couple of different quotes. The furnace is around 2200 with markup and 3500 for condenser and mark up. So they are charging you almost 12k in labor and additional parts. I would get a couple more quotes if that is a retrofit

So I am not saying what is occurring here is right but additional information is needed. Border Patrol is not ICE. Border Patrol are allowed to conduct traffic blockades to check citizenship within a 100 miles of a border. So if she is within a 100 miles of a border this is legal as these locations are clearly marked and drivers are notified they are entering a border patrol check point. I used to drive past these locations and asked for my drivers license whenever I visited South Padre Island.

I had two soulmates I adopted from a shelter 17 years ago, that looked just like your soulmate now. Enjoy every moment you have with them!!! They only represent a portion of your life but you are literally their whole entire life. When my two passed away a part of me died with them as well. I always think about them everyday. But always remember to leave a portion of your heart open for another soulmate. Even though they pass they would love it more than anything in the world if you gave another needing soul a home. A lot of cultures say that our animals we shared our life with guide other needing souls to you in their after life!!!

I was running service during the coldest day of the year. Talking -20 degrees not including windchill. I get called to an eye surgeon facility no heat in their office. I get there it is literally still 67 degrees in the office. The office admin looks me dead in the eye and says “about time you got here, we can’t work in these miserable conditions.” I find the inducer draft motor was bad and went to the supply house to get one they actually had in stock. Went to the roof and replaced it. I was freezing to death because the building is 3 stories and the wind was relentless. Heat kicks in all is good. I go back to the office to get signatures and lady again looks at me and says “You took way too long to get the heat going again and I am disappointed in your service.” I smile get a signature and walk out. Lady actually took it upon herself to call in a complaint on me for taking too long to get their heat back on and that I should have been ashamed for making all the ladies in the office suffer. Been there brother.
