Humidifier operations are normal. Pulled and cleaned the flame sensor. Inspected ignitor; both ignitor and temperature rise are within range. System is heating properly at this time. Noted that the gas union is located inside the furnace housing. Repairs will be needed to remove the gas union from inside the furnace housing. today's visit does not count as first visit on contract. ac maintenance is first visit.** wssc approved gas after unit installation with union I side furnace housing.
