Sounds good. I can't imagine it would take that long for parts on a new unit. Should be less than a week to see parts, unless it is a new model furnace. In the meantime carry a small electric/ceramic heater with you and run he A/C fan to circulate the heat. That's what I do when it gets cold! One 30 lb LP tank lasts me almost 2 years.
The trip in November is with no hookups although the one in December is with power. The ceramic heater is a good option if it is still out of commission come December. Thanks
I agree on the parts timing. The service tech explained it that the dealer makes a claim to the manufacturer and the manufacturer does not stock parts for warranty. The manufacturer has to order from the supplier of the particular unit(in this case Suburban). The supplier sends part to manufacturer who sends it to the dealer. The guy said he has been doing this since the seventies and the process has not improved. I really am hoping for a loose wire!
With any luck that's all it is.
I bought a new Cherokee in 05 and the water heater didn`t work on 110V. after looking around I found they forgot to plug the unit in. the outlet was behind the water heater so it couldn't be seen. I felt around and found the plug laying there. plugged it in and all was well.
