Gas Furnace No Heat Service Call - Step by Step Diagnosis Bad Gas Control Valve & Replacement

[@tphvac87]

I just replaced 2 bad LP converted gas valves today and two more last week, 🤷‍♂️ but it’s the dead gas valve season! I love working on gas furnaces so much more than boilers but I digress I do it all, oil, gas, boiler, furnace, heat pumps, mini splits…the list goes on and on! Nice job Mikey!

[@Steve-bm2zm]

Great advice. There was a house just north of Dayton Ohio that blew up. The debris field is a 200 yard radius. Two people and two dogs are deceased 😢😢

Love everything you are the best.You are very smart, very brilliant.Love your videos my friend😅

[@macogarage6428]

You are the best…. Lol and I was whiting for the click of installing the heat shield metal back… 😜

[@dkinfishing]

I didn’t see a manometer used to test the gas valve?

[@danobrien3109]

4 flashes was actually an open limit switch Mike. It is an open limit on Carrier and ICP as well. Replacing the valve was the right call, if the opening solenoid is sticking closed it may well stick open when it is time to close. For a couple hundred bucks it’s money well spent.👍👍🇨🇦

[@DanielMalkokian]

Lol, I know a couple of homeowners that will sit in the basement and tap that gas valve every time 😂

[@kat2641]

Rolling on the floor laughing!!! Any one else?? I would question if you put the roll out heat plate back in place . But pipe dr? Nope never had a doubt about proper re- install.. An gee you gave that gas valve such a love tap 😂😂 don’t watch me 😂😂😂 But seriously that unit is short short life glad it’s you all an not us having to replace it 👍 I absolutely hate tight quarters.

I’m glad I made this video a little interesting a little different than the others. I typically post.

[@brucesibert6550]

Great job, but did you address the inducer motor? I feel like you will be back out there by Christmas. Also what was the water in the bottom on the furnace?

[@zekenzy6486]

Great video. Thank you for sharing

Mikey I could really use that Testo wireless kit. 6 weeks ago was let go from the contractor I worked for 28 years. Had to leave behind my Sman manifold that was supplied by said contractor. Got a new gig 2 weeks ago and new contactor gave me a set of beat to hell 3 port JB analog guages. I've been drooling over the wirelss probes/temp setups but dont have the $ to throw down on some. I asked about wireless at my new place and they said cost was to much and they don't trust the new wireless probes. Help a guy out brother. Pick me !

What’s your jurisdiction Mike? NYC? I’m pretty sure tape is aloud.

FROM CHICAGO EXELENT VIDEO THANK YOU SO MUCH

[@Aepek]

Love me some percussive maintenance 8:59 as can tell ya lots, but is it “good” to keep there & not replace….. If was my unit, I’d say NOPE, but what do I know 😅

[@DevinHVACInc]

Hey Mike. I can definitely used those smart probes. Will make work easy via the Bluetooth since I’m a one person operation. This is Dev. I can pick it up locally.

Here in the Midwest, we’re both Natural Gas and Areas Outside St. Louis are ALL Electric Homes which is Expensive for Furnaces, Water Heaters, etc.

[@everettstevenson2111]

Hey Mike Daiack, of Mikey Pipes Plumbing not easy being cheesy. You know that the natural gas isn't 100% moisture free. Honeywell and white roger at one time had a ceramic or foam filter inside its gas valve. I did not you clean the flame sensor? Come on Mikey, no little PM again. If were living and working in russian, you be taking a bucket also into the house.lol. Love you buddy, you be safe out there.

you would be taking a bucket of coal into the house too, unquote.

Mikey 6 yr hvac tech from Philly would love to give those testos a spin, and a couple of those pipe doctor chasity cages you got, thanks; me personally choose not to wear when working but I do wear my Beckett underwear because bring oil back 2024 believe 🙏🏻😢.

[@Ikke-wi2xy]

Mikey, why not replace the inducermotor also? Kind regards

[@PipeDoctor]

Cause it ain’t in the wallet

[@MedinaCliff]

Mickey.. Why did you not clean out the inside of the gas pipe of that glob of pipe dope, you dope You know that has the potential to clog the gas valve. Shame on you Bro!

[@goofybeer1]

Is that blue sealant rated for gas ?

[@PipeDoctor]

Yes

[@josephbermudez8073]

I always confirm voltage and then i take a contactor and wire it see if pulls it in if it does then i got enough to open the valve

[@garypitts4139]

I'd really love to get a set of those become I'm starting my own ac business on the side and I am needing a professional set like those. I don't have the money for those bad boys and it would be a blessing to own a set.
