Bryant Plus 90 Gas Furnace Leaking Water

Posted by Kevin G. on November 24, 2006, 10:54 am

My Bryant Plus 90 gas furnace is leaking a small amount of water
underneath the unit. I cannot actually see when the water drips
because it is very infrequent.

The furnace has a humdifier attached to it, but it is turned off and
the location of the water leak does not correspond to where the
humidifier is located.

Is this water normal condensation or should I be more concerned?

Thank you,
Kevin G.

Kevin,

Did you ever get an answer to this? I just noticed the same thing
yesterday on mine.

The likely problem is one of the black rubber drain hoses that are on
top of the blower shelf is rotted out and leaking. Common problem.

You have a leak.. Get it fixed before it takes out a circuit board or
something else electronic and expensive. Call a Good Service company.

We are sorry to say that he did NOT get an answer. In the meantime he
actually froze to death in his own home waiting for a friend of a
friends, wifes, uncles, cousins, sisters, brother-in-laws, cousin to
come fix it. He never showed up. He saved a bunch of money on his gas
bill and repair though.
