This furnace was installed in my home in 2011. The blower motor had to be replaced in 2016...a few months after the warranty expired, of course. Now the blower motor is overheating all the time (4 flashing green lights) and I haven't been able to get anyone in to fix it. I wish I had never agreed to a new furnace as they old one was incredibly reliable.
@jmairnheat3 жыл бұрын
Blower motors are typically very reliable if the correct size furnace is installed and the ducting is checked to make sure it doesn't restrict airflow. There could be a problem that with the ducting that needs addressing. Best to find a local contractor to help you. (maybe a different one than the one who installed it)

May want to replace the heat & a/c system (quite old and still working). Based on research I can see the outside unit, air handler, and vent stack being replaced. The duct work is pretty much sealed above the ceiling and behind the belly band beneath the trailer. Whatever resources / references / suggestions you might have regarding systems like the Coleman would be great as I research my options. BTW CA utility costs are pretty high, so might want to consider options of heat pump vs. gas / electric for heating and cooling. Pretty mild climate where we live. Thanks!

I had a Coleman Presidential II furnace in my old 1981 Skyline mobile home. It ran on propane and had the pilot light. It exploded one afternoon during the fall of 1998. And when I say exploded, I literally mean that. I was outside walking in the driveway and it sounded like a military cannon went off. I looked at the trailer and smoke was coming out of the roof jack. Luckily it didn’t cause any fire but it smelled funny when I ran inside. I shut the power off, pulled the doors off the furnace and it had blown a huge red spot on the inside of the bottom panel. The repairman said that the insides had just disintegrated. I assume something had rotted internally and developed a slow propane leak, and when it went to fire off, it ignited all of that propane it had leaked inside of itself.

Hi Michael. Great question. Static pressure is important on all systems, one thing we have discovered is that most systems are oversized and when properly sized less air flow is required and the static pressure is less of an issue. Less airflow = lower static when the duct is the same size. In some cases we have to increase the crossover duct. sometimes there is nothing you can do for a reasonable cost. When the duct is really bad I recommend ductless system.

@@jmairnheat thanks four reply , H vac companies were scheduled out a ways so I purchased a pre charged Revolv 2.5 ton 14 seer mobile home unit with a 3 ton coil an 20 ft line sets. With accucharge quick connections . Pretty easy install besides one line th big one was a struggle to connect to the coil took a bit of muscle an anger lol. But it's working great was going to do mini splits but after seeing your video figured central air would be best an cost less than having several mini split head units an would take up no room inside the house

Great video, thank you for posting. That new unit looks a lot like the unit I already have DGAA090BDTA. It's a good furnace but I'm on propane and want to switch to an electric furnace. Can you give me any ideas on a comparable electric unit and what to look for as far as physical size and/or BTU's? Mine is currently 90k BTU and the mobile home is 2,000 sf. I'd really appreciate any help. Also, do you ship furnaces to the midwest? (Edit: It says 90k BTU Input and 72k BTU Output)

@@jmairnheat I’m considering a mini split unit to possibly a central air unit. DGAA077BDTA appears to be a Colman unit installed 2008 in my 16x70 mobile home of 1,150 square feet. I have had trouble educating myself on if a central air unit can be installed under this Colman furnace- per Redit the whole furnace needs to come out of the closet for say. Then a coil has to be installed- then need to confirm my electric panel will be able to have the circuit added Basically I’m wondering what direction to go would raither have central air than the mini split can this be done and what am I researching for? Would like to be prepared for the cost. So far a mini split looks like 1,500 For central need coil and condenser per redit the coil is 300.00 and not sure on the condenser have not gotten that far I’m guessing a 3-4 ton?

Hello, I am having trouble with my furnace and it is exactly the same as the old model in your video, a technician came earlier and without even opening it told me that it was the heat exchanger that I had to replace the whole unit, and I checked the website and the heat exchanger has lifetime warranty I just wanted to know the model on your furnace. Thank you in advance
@jmairnheat3 жыл бұрын
Lifetime to the original owner is usually how that goes. So unless you purchased the home new, or the furnace new, you are probably out of luck on that. You might be able to replace just the heat-exchanger, but honestly, if it has gone bad, I'd replace the whole furnace.
