MYSTERY WATER LEAK FROM GAS FURNACE

[@Hvac-dude]

Steve when you retire I will make sure to always look back on your old vidioes you've helped me out so much with starting my hvac plumbing carrer thanku for making them just promise to keep the old vidioes up 😊😊

[@drmckinley]

When the pup stops running it looks like it's siphoning out because the other end of the line is lower and cause any siphoning effect. No big deal

[@tedbell4416]

Yep I think that's how they are supposed to work. The pump stops before the tank is emptied and the rest is sucked out by the tube

[@Privat2840]

Everyone I have seen with a long discharge hose does the siphoning after it shuts off.

[@CapsCup2012]

That makes sense

[@zackmax7184]

Hello Steve and Miss Molly. I see that Miss Molly Decided to come with You today.

[@JavierGalvan-s2f]

Another great fix and a kick ass video Steve! Keep them videos coming 💥☝️👍👌👏🫵

[@sheldonlatimer6688]

Hi Miss Molly and happy valentine to ya

[@CommercialGasEngineerVideos]

Miss Molly is a natural on camera. I only show up to see her. As she's the one fixing the problems whilst Steve gets all the credit.

[@matthewgregory8218]

Aaaw mis Mollys so cute.

[@Bob.W.]

Alexa has got him figured out, lol.

[@WeatherNut27]

Interesting! Went from just being just an easy clamp to an annoying little job. Nice fix.

[@tonym6920]

Hey Steve and Miss Molly! Workin’ again ya’ll. 👍👍

[@Techhead777]

Those interested in the pump (since Steve said it was a nice pump) it's a Diversitech LCP-20. Lowe's carries it for $95. One of the complaints are cheap check valve or none included! Other complaints were motor failure after a short while and that the pump doesn't activate until the water level is high enough to spill out the back of the mounting brackets. Not perfect and apparently a cheaper version than the other models. At $100 get the Diversitech model with a red base.

[@acrservicesmathewr7565]

They have built in check valves and there rated for a certain height at 3/8 once you increase the pipe size you decrease the lift. There is way to many bends for that pump. Need to go straight up into a primary drain or into the cloths washer drain. There is a float inside the pump so it never runs dry. But the float gets mucky and will stick up and keep running. They should be treated with algae tabs or takin apart yearly and cleaned

[@johnnicatra570]

Sorry for my ignorance Steve but what does that system do?Add humidity to.the home?

[@thankswillie]

thats ok...lol,its getting rid of furnace water

[@christopherpelton725]

Their inducer motor sounds like it's not much longer for this world either

[@RockoRocko-rz7kx]

Top it off its a Goodman 😂

[@christopherpelton725]

@@RockoRocko-rz7kx Thank goodness for Goodman. They keep us all busy with service work.

[@frandome]

Another satisfied customer!

[@williamloder9194]

I have customers call me with water around their furnace. It turns out that the receptacle it was plugged into was a GFI receptacle and tripped. I tell them to run an extension cord from a non GFI outlet. That fixes that problem. I know it is code to have a GFI outlet but I can't keep having the customer resetting it. Those pumps have built in check valves

[@mraaron1584]

the pump shouldn't be tripping it had mine plugged in to a gfci for years and i've never had to reset it.

[@BB-iq4su]

Needs at least two more check valves.....

[@iamnoone.]

Howdy Steve and Molly

[@08airman]

Hi Steve and Miss Molly!

[@rodneyskinner7741]

Hello Steve!

[@scotthill1278]

Acted like a syphon with the bubbles.

[@andyvitz]

There's Miss Molly today

[@psyfertech]

looks like its creating a siphon i think

[@RockoRocko-rz7kx]

that acidic water coming out of that furnace and maybe it rotted the fitting out. Shoulda replaced that elbow for a plastic one. Also i think the floats stuck and keeping the pump on too long and sucking in air and water mixture

[@lancelawrence3259]

Nice work

[@trackman515]

Glad you and Ms Molly are doing well Steve! Havent seen your videos come up ina few months now!

[@ntsecrets]

There must be a place where it can siphon on the other end

[@jblyon2]

Agreed

[@michaellee695]

There’s a switch inside the pump that shuts the pump off when the water level gets low enough. If the switch is set too low or is bound up, the pump will continue to pump until it is pumping air. There should be some water remaining in the bowl when the pump cuts off. If all the water is removed you will then start pumping air.

[@kytacomaguy]

Steve, Are you trying to fix more than just the pipes???

[@ClickinChicken]

Steve says, "Making fun of your husband." Then what's her name (Alexa) on the smaaaat phone says, "That's what I figured." 2024 Gems!!! I wanted to say when I turn off my showa , I wipe the showa head everyday like when Steve checks 4 continued leaks. Makes me chuckle to myself, as a viewer..

[@paraicheneghan8934]

Be careful cutting Molly's nails they have veins which can bleed.

[@suekotchevar2765]

I've seen mice in pumb box
