Post back and let us know how it all turns out. Usually rust/water damage might not be covered depending upon the situation. I can tell you the new units have a limited lifetime warranty on the heat X BUT that is only to the original purchaser and you might have to show reciepts where the furnace has had regular service etc. The next step is to see the dealer and find out what will happen since I am limited in my knowledge of older Lennox units warranty and warranty requirements. I wonder if the baromatric damper is still installed? Just guessing here since I cannot really inspect from long distance. I wonder if the old pipe had rusted/rotted out. Also looks like part or all of the flue/chimney connector has been replaced with new pipe. Looks like your flue gas has been condensing in the chimney area or water/rain has been going down the chimney or the basement/install area is very damp. It have been hitting the transformer and other parts of the burner. NOTE: I can see in the picture rust drip down from the flue pipe. If the furnaces are in a high moisture area like a wet or real damp basement that can also do the trick on a heat X.Īs letmetellu said you will need to read the warranty at the Lennox site or since these are older units the Lennox dealer or factory will have to find out if the warranty is valid and for how long. If not then a factory rep will have to visit and look over the situation. A Lennox dealer has to do that if the Lennox dealer thinks it is a warranty situation. If the drain line is plugged,or the coil is dirty the water can overflow the drain pan or drip down onto the heat X. It is possibly the water that comes off the coils for the A/C. What I saw in the picture did not look to me to be refrigerant/Freon (Dupont trade name) damage.
