Question by Retrodude: What causes a house furnace to get fed more water, and then shut off? What if it gets fed too much water?
My furnace starts to knock drastically if it gets fed too much water, it seems to be doing just that according the the water site gage. Then it starts to get into the radiators in the house. How do I stop it from feeding the furnace when there’s evidently enough water there? Thank you for your time to answer.
