PS...I see below you were asking what was wrong....it's the original furnace that was here when we moved in. Honestly we knew it was getting close to the time it was going to need replaced, but you know how that goes, each year when it starts ok you think, ok, we are fine for one more year.....Honestly we where hoping to get a couple of more years out of it, but on the other hand we aren't suprised it can't be fixed and that we need a new one.....know what I mean? <br>we figured the furnace was about 20 years old..well today we found the original paper work and it is a little over 25 years old.... -- Piggy's Pad

Hey, if you got 25 years out of it, you done good, girl!!! When we bought our house, it was 6 years old. At 17, we replaced the furnace to a new 90% efficient one and a new, larger water heater. But hey, I never realized that you had forced air natural gas systems in PA. I guess I thought you'd be using the baseboard electric heat or some kind of a boiler system. A new furnace will set you back some healthy bucks, but they're so worth it. (NT) -- Sandy, 10:38:57 am, Sun, 12/02/07
