The refrigerant lines run underground & the shutoff is installed at the unit because the installer is to lazy to properly drill through the brick.
Running a copper condensate under the basement floor. You can see the efflourescence. I am sure this will leak in the cooling season. I have heard that concrete causes copper to deteriorate. Only the furnace is in the liner. Where is the Wye connection? Can we install the cap the right way. There is a nice piece of sheet metal at the flue entry. This will keep the C/O from spilling. These repairs seemed 1/2 *** at best. I reported that the roof needs replacing because I know all you astute Nachi members will point this out. Any comments.

I can't tell from the picture but is that a forced hot air system?
Is it supplied by gas? I'm concerned about the pitch of the vent into the chimney. |

My roof was replaced 2 years ago and it leaks.
Lets see: The installer nailed holes in the valleys, installed a waterfall gutter system that cost $600 that I threw away as it allowed debris in to block the gutters. Now I observe that the flashing leaks as there is fresh staing under the chimney. I called the roofer today as I have a 5 year workmanship warranty. If he doesnt respond I will calll the local BBB. This gut lives down the street & I would never recommend his crew. I never pursued the claim against crane products the manufacturer of the waterfall gutter system. This system sucks!! |
