Guardian Furnace Installation Manual
Very Unsatisfied Review: 'Poor product' My Guardian/york furnace was installed 9 years ago and has required regular repairs in the past 5 years. The blower motor went out after 5 years. I have also replaced the flame sensor and a temperature control after those items went out in following years. The condensate pan developed cracks two years ago that leaked corrosive water onto the sheet metal inside the unit. I initially removed and patched the pan in an attempt at avoiding another costly repair but, have recently found new leaks.
Guardian furnace problem. Woodworker Posts: 6 Member. January 2011 in Gas Heating. I have a 40,000 btu 95.5%eff up-flow furnace. It has approx. 10' of 2' PVC for vent.
The furnace is reliable in that I can count on it going down one or multiple times per winter. Guardian customer service was obviously not interested in helping. I would recommend avoiding any products by this company. Date created: 2016-12-15 Name: Ben Location: OH Satisfaction Rating. Very Unsatisfied Review: 'Bad Choice' I have only had this furnace for a few years and have had to have something replaced every year.
I have replaced the blower 2 times in 6 years and have only had the furnace 7. I have also relaced motors in it and now the board is no longer working. Or at least that is the current guess. There is no error code for the error its giving so the Guardian thinks the board is just bad. This is a lot of fun to have a furnace not working again when its down to -11 outside. Service man told me that they stopped selling this furnace because of all the problem with them they see. Just wish I knew that before I bought it.
I will not ever be getting this name brand again. Date created: 2016-11-29 Name: Chris Lentz Location: Kansas City, MO Satisfaction Rating. Objectdock stack docklet.
Very Unsatisfied Review: 'DO NOT BUY!' I am a union pipe fitter service technician who sold and installed a RGF1L100CP20MP11A.
( 100,000 btu / 5ton drive, 80percent ). On start up, the furnace was vibrating so badly that it almost jumped off of its base. I removed the blower and found a 3/8' screw lodged in the wheel, which caused the blower to be out of balance. I replaced the wheel and motor with new. I then found that the furnace would intermitantly lock out due to ignition failure.
(It will not consistently light the burner). I verified that inlet and outlet gas pressure, and that the gas valve is operating correctly. Tomorrow I will remove the gas manifold and try to reposition burner #1 closer to the ignitor. At this point, I am embarrassed and feel guilty for endorsing and putting my name on this furnace. Tonight before right before bed time I will pray that I won't have any issues with the air conditioner. Date created: 2016-10-18 Name: Thomas Poe III Location: Radium Springs, NM Satisfaction Rating. Very Satisfied Review: 'New furnace install' My old 'Intertherm' furnace was placed in the home at manufacture (1996).
This year, it finally gave up the ghost, so to speak. Went online to HomeAdvisor.com and got a list of possible service companies. First one I called was Southwest Climate Control, of Chaparral, New Mexico. Even though Chaparral is miles from my home in Radium Springs, they worked with me and got the job done in good time. Thus far, have only seen the furnace run once (their shakedown run); but it seems to be pushing air with more force than the old furnace.
Looks like a good, solid unit. Date created: 2015-01-07 Name: Bob N. Location: Minneapolis, MN Satisfaction Rating. Very Satisfied Review: 'Very nice furnace' The unit is five years old and the draft inducer motor bearings are going bad. But the unit is quiet, reliable, and a lot cheaper to run than the old furnace. Would I buy one again?
I'm very happy with the unit. The bearing on the draft inducer motor is to be expected after five years, and the savings with this furnace's running cost has already paid for the furnace, not to mention the initial savings of this furnace compared to others.
