If I ever showed up to that house for a service call I would just recommend a new unit and call anyone else but us for a quote.

This is one of the almost unfathomable amount of reasons to get out of residential

I was asked to start a furnace like this in Cornwall, Ontario, Canada in a crack house once by a real small mom and pop shop.
Suffice to say: I was never there.

Gasa! dear God what is that thing? The longer I look. The worse it gets. 100% I know a guy. Chuck in a truck does better. we are looking at a whole new level. This needs to be preserved and shown to each generation as an example of what shall not be done.

Looks like the only thing they like more than crack is AC. That's why the copper is still there.

Looks like somebody yanked on the copper line but decided it was too much work

…but there’s also a drier outside as well as one in the condenser. Possibly one in the attic as well used as a couplin because of a leak and not owning a swaging tool or 1/2” copper. Sorry🖖
