Re: Rheem HVAC start up problem
it seems you are getting the same problem with the venturi and burner tubes clogging, perhaps it's not getting enough fresh air, and producing soot, which clogs it.. rheem will let you know, just let them know you keep getting this problem.. |

| What's modd is the furnace runs fine during the day with the problem being at early morning start up after an extended "sleep" cycle as the temp set back takes effect. Even at that it is not every morning.
Thanks for the input. Anythuing I can use to convince the tech to do something is appreciated. My guess after all I have eread is the problem is some msort of blockage in the venturi. |

Rheem tech was here last week. He said the problem was the air intake tube was allowing in enough air but was allowing it in with to much force due to the 4 in opening. This excessive force disrupted the flame on the 1st 2 burners and would prevent the flame from spreading to the other 5.
By opening up another air access point it diffused the turbulence in the burner area.
Problem solved.
Thanks for all the input. |
