    Ducane vent fan full of water
    The fan on the vent blower inside the ducane furnace sounds like it has water in it and won't get to full speed. The furnace won't ignite (light blinks 3 times to tell me pressure switch won't open) and it waits 5 minutes and then tries to run the fan again. Is there supposed to be a water sound inside the inducer fan?

    Thank you. I took the fan off and drained the water out. I also found a crimp in the drain line. The furnace is working well now.
