I switched tanks for propane and my heater quit blowing hot air, it was blowing but just warm/cool. So, being that I am so smart, not, I thought my regulator had gone bad or it was vapor looked. Did the ol oven burner test and bright blue flames, so I called the mobile tech. We pulled the burner out and there were six stink bugs in the burner tube which was blocking the flow to the burners so even though the furnace was igniting it wasn't getting enough flow for hot air. Not only do stink bugs stink but they can get fried, not stink, but still cause trouble! This little $150.00 note may save all of you some cash down the road. South Carolina has a lot of different bugs, a story for a later time.
