Hello everyone.
I have the above mentioned furnace. I notice it is leaking from the water trap. It has a small box installed on the right side of the unit to collect the water as I have no floor drain to run the hoses to.
The sticker says this furnace was installed in 2001 I believe, and I have been in the house since 2008. This is the first I have had an issue with water. I can see the little trap is full. I have no idea how this normally drains or why it has stopped and is overflowing now.
It has two small plastic tubes (PVC?) running to the two outward holes, and a soft hose running up from the middle hole in the trap. I assume this is the drain and it must have a pump or something that forces the excess water up and out.
Any ideas why it is overflowing now and if I can do anything about it or should I just have a tech in to take care of it?
Thanks
Craig
