Kahokamo]I saw some of you answers on ASK-ME and you seem to know your stuff... My question is three parts...

1. When the furnace kicks on it sounds like a Riccola Commercial (deep horns blown from a mountain side). How is the best way to bleed off the system. I have found the bleed valve and it is up high in a utility room... Do I need to shut everything down to do it?

2. I have heavy condensation coming from the exhaust vent pipe. It is bad enough that I have to keep a 5 gal bucket under the elbow where it leaks... Still scratching my head about that one...

3. I have a pressure bladder on the pipes above the furnace. What is the ideal pressure? Does it vary from system to system according to pipe size?
