I had a guy tell a customer of mine one time he couldn’t figure out why their furnace had two heat exchangers (all 90%+ do) and also that there were definitely no cracks in either of them (there was one about the thickness of a dime, which in the HVAC world is gigantic). > > If push comes to shove Sean and you need the furnace legitmately checked out, let me know and I’ll send a service tech over for half price ($35) and do a full diagnostic on the system. Otherwise like I said above if you just want a simple look over and price workup, let me know and I’ll do it for nothing whenever you have some tme. lol, all depends on the inspector… I had an inspector walk through with a buyer (I was on the selling side) and tell us that the furnace was bad, wouldn’t lite… the furnace had only been used when it was installed 2 years prior, it was for the lower part of a duplex that he lived in and refused to rent once his kids were born. We brought a specialist in who showed the buyer that it had a safety cover that once removed it wouldn’t lite… the inspector removed the cover and then tried to start it … cost the seller $75 just to prove that the home inspector was an idiot! --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/home-heating-question/199662)._
