Was my furnace drain plumbed right?

[Sharp Snips]

Thats not a call back.

Unfortunately in the world I work in...it is indeed. What you or I may think about it perhaps is a different thing.

With the way its shown in the pics yes.

But, by just his description. I wasn't going to lead him into thinking it should be fixed for free.

You da man!

I was wondering myself about your stand. Now it makes sense.

Newer, kinder, gentle beenthere. LOL

Attempting not to make brash, jumped to the wrong conclusion statements.

There's enough assuming in the world.

May we assume your mom also told you this?

Is that a lennox furnace?

Yes

If so the trap on the furnace should be on the same side of the flue pipe.If its not did thay put in the kit from lennox to drain that way.

Flue is on the same side as condensate trap

And for the trap and drain should not be set up with the tee. Make it right and it will work better.

T fitting is glued to the condensate trap - not sure how to take it off without ruining trap.

Call the contractor back.

Run a separate line. If your drain plugs up, the condensate will back up into the coil pan and overflow into your furnace. Has your humidifier been leaking or is the white residue from an older unit?

In the past this humidifier plugged the drain hose with minerals and overflowed. That's why I'm concerned with having it plumbed properly. I'm convinced it should have a separate drain for each source of water.

yes, ideal setup would be separate 3/4" pipes for all units, but what do you think most people would say about 3- 3/4" pipes run across the floor to the drain? Most hate to have the one. But I will agree that the humidifier draining into the pipe above the a coil is going to be trouble someday, as long as they are coming back ask them to run that separate all the way to the drain, I am sure they will not have issues with that.
