sounds like drains aren`t just like they should be. Is it a new install?

About ten years old. Not sure what drain you are talking about.

If this unit is 90+ efficiency unit, it will have a drain system which can clog and cause condensate water to back up into the draft inducer and therefore up into the pressure switch tube. If you have a 90+, clean any and all drain ports and hoses in your furnace, along with the drain pipe on the outside of the furnace.

80 percenter,with an inducer motor,and pressure switch,I haven`t run up on that at all or at least very often.
is there anything about this furnace you failed to tell us,,,so as a 80% furnace it has metal exhaust,,does it have a ac a-coil that sits on top of furnace? does the exhaust/flu pipe go straight up ? into a chimney flu?

It has a metal flue pipe to the chimney and a metal inducer motor. I know this for sure.
