Hi,
I just had my furnaces cleaned and was told I have a problem with water in the ducting. My house is what is called an up/down duplex. The basement is a separate living space (was always designed to be) so has its own hot water, furnace etc. The ducting for the downstairs furnace is in the floor, it was laid and the concrete poured over it during construction.
I'm not sure what to do about it. I could probably get a sump pump to remove what's there now (and plan on doing so). The furnace company says I need to discontinue use of that ducting and put in new ducting as it will just continue to build up over time. Since the basement is fully finished, and rented out, this is no small thing.
Does anyone have any advice? I'm not sure who I should be calling to see what my options are.
