i got a rudd furnace in my 10year old house, it sits on a stand about 6inches off the ground, water drips from it now and leaves a puddle, does anyone have suggestion what to do?
thanks

Check hoses on furnace for cracks and any signs the water is coming from them. Also check the end of the line that the condensation drains into to make sure it is flowing freely. If nothing obvious identifies itself, have a qualified tech inspect the furnace to ensure heat exchangers are sound. Something seemingly as simple a a "water leak" could be life threatening.
