Don't leave disconnects off.

If youre a tech, make sure the unit is running when you leave. Ive been on a lot of calls where the gas valve on/off switch was switched to off. Our other inexperienced tech was just there yesterday, and did a clean and tune. I know the customer didnt turn it off as they cant even make it down the stairs. Same tech left a combustion analyzer hole unpugged so co could piss into the space. The moral of the story pay attention to details, they are everything.
