  • Confirm thermostat, controller, or front-panel status without changing service settings.
  • Check only visible intake, exhaust, filter, clearance, condensate, and water-supply conditions that can be inspected without opening panels.
  • Take photos of the code, equipment nameplate, venting, surrounding equipment area, thermostat or controller, and any visible leak, ice, or obstruction.

When to stop and call GreenFlow
