In Reply to: Carrier Furnace. posted by Mark-IA on January 15, 2018 at 10:21:31:
I had this happen on a 25 year old Lennox pulse furnace. The heat exchanger had a lifetime warranty/guarantee. They told me the heat exchangers were getting a little scarce, and I might get a new Lennox pulse furnace instead. Regardless of the outcome, I would have to pay the labor for replacing the heat exchanger or the furnace. They found a new heat exchanger in the parts system. I think it cost me a couple hundred bucks labor. As I recall, this furnace had either an electronic ignition or a hot glow igniter.................I cannot recall as I sold the house 12 years ago after I repaired this. I had trust in the firm whom I was working with, as it was the actual owner who came to service the furnace. He has indicated mine was one of the very first pulse furnaces made by Lennox, and they had proven themselves to be reliable and durable, since there weren't a lot of electronic controls on the unit. In the house I have now, it had a Carrier high efficiency furnace with a hot glow igniter, so there was no pilot light. It was about 21 years old at the time replaced it with a ground source heat pump. I think you have questions that only your furnace technician and supplier can answer. I would suspect if the inner components are in good shape, and not corroded, you should be okay in just replacing the heat exchanger, provided they can obtain one for you. I also suspect Carrier went to this $1250 credit, which would leave the choice of replacement furnace up to you, so you could choose to go with whatever unit you wish to go with, leaving it open to go with a low cost furnace, a value priced furnace, or a premium furnace. Thinking back to my old Lennox, I suspect if the company had to replace my furnace, rather than replacing the heat exchanger, it would have been a lower quality/lower priced unit, rather than a better model.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
