Hi all,
I've got a 60 year old steam furnace with a newer gas burner unit (~12 years old) that will not reliably start up and, when started, will continue to heat long after the target temperature has been met. I have replaced the 60-year old wiring & the 12-year old thermostat and still have the problem.
Any thoughts? We had the local gas company's service people out--that was kind of worthless--they said it was the thermostat or the wire, but they didn't work on them, and then they sent us a bill for their 'diagnosis'.
Thans in advance,
Cheers,
