I woke up 6 days ago to no heat. Called furnace repairman who came out that afternoon & started switching out parts on the furnace. He said he ordered a module from another city & it would be in on Monday, this was friday. In the mean time he installed a module and something else to “keep you warm through the weekend” “will fix it properly on Monday” Less than 12 hours after his “quick fix” it quit. So Monday afternoon he is there working on the furnace ” think i got it fixed, but i wired your blower to stay on all the time” WTF??? Then he tells me, “it wasnt the module, it was the gas valve/switch” I replaced it. I am thinking where is the module we ordered? His explanation for fan always on was ‘its going to go bad and might quit working” well…to me, wouldnt it quit working quicker if you keep it running all the time? it cools the house faster & makes the furnace come on more. He takes my old module, leaves the one that he put on on friday, no charge for new one
So now furnace is ON all the time, house is cold then hot then cold then hot, killing light bill and gas consumption and man gives me a bill for 260.00. I cancelled payment on the check and am sending him a certified letter filing a complaint and wanting it fixed properly….did i do right?
Yes, the gas does come on and the ignitor does do its job and light the flame.
