Comfort by Design (our of Fort Collins) was here before 8 am this morning. Tony (left) and Eric (right) spent the next five hours performing diagnostics on the house...testing the furnace, water heater, oven, air infiltration. Using carbon monoxide monitors, gas pressure gauge, blower door, puffer.Interesting finds...
- though the foundation feels like it's a freezing slab, it's a crawl space (with vents to outdoors). No, the secret door in the closet doesn't go to Narnia, as our videocameraman Christian, proposed.
- high carbon monoxide readings from the gas burners and oven. No CO from the gas fireplace.
- flame rollout observed at the furnace...something is making the gas pressure float and when it drops too low, the flames roll out, then the furnace turns completely off.
