I have a Goodman GMS furnace which is brand new. During our recent flood in Northwest Indiana, the water level rose high enough for one of the heat exchanger tubes to fill with water (it is mounted horizontally). Can I suck the water
out with a shop vac and run dry air into the tube to save this furnace? I have checked and replaced everything else that may have been affected.

Thanks!

I would call a pro to have it checked out, it could have done damage that you can not see or don't know what to look at.

Yes you can vacuum water, but DO NOT fire the furnace until it is checked out ..
