    Anybody Buy the Extended Warranty for Their Furnace Heat Exchanger?

    Hi all! We are new owners of a 2021 Shockwave and going through the paperwork I found that extended warranty for the Suburban furnace heat exchanger. $30 adds 2 more years to the 5 year Mfg warranty but I was wondering if anyone here bought it or used it for heat exchanger issues?

    We have a 2005 Forester 2901 and I need to get into the furnace. It appears that the outside furnace cover was installed before the unit was painted.

    Furnace parts falling out?

    After traveling down a very bumpy road, I found a 4" steel round disc on the floor in front of the furnace. After removing the loose grille, I see a 4" hole in the left side of the housing. Should this disc be reinstalled? Was it removed and just not discarded? Did it just fall out? I tried...

    Bad Furnace Blower Motor

    The furnace blower motor failed over the weekend of the 23rd of October. The motor would come on for 30 seconds and then shut down. I thought it was a failed sail switch. Turns out it was in fact, the blower motor failing. It was still under warranty. The Freedom Express 20SE was purchased...

    It was time to try our propane furnace with our new to us 5.0. I set the dometic thermostat on furnace with low fan. To my surprise both the furnace and the AC fan started running. I was expecting only the propane furnace to be running. Is this normal? I did not hear the compressor come on...

    2901 Furnace issue, 2005 Forester

    Our Dominic furnace sometimes fails to light. The blower ones on but the furnace doesn’t fire up. Plenary of propane. Sometimes it lights, sometimes it doesn’t. I assume the igniter is misaligned or failing. Is there a way to get to the “guts” if I remove the outside furnace cover? Could it be...
