If you read her post, she states the igniter ignites for about 5-30 seconds.
If she had stated that the burners went on and off then it would seem to be
a flame sensor problem. There is no need for nastiness or name calling. The
only way to properly diagnose the problem is to have a contractor check the
furnace and she is having that done in a few days.

We have found it to be a very reliable furnace if installed properly. They
do tend to be a bit noisy. RPJ2 is not the model number. You will find

on the rating plate inside the burner compartment. Sounds like you may
need
a new hot surface igniter.

Idiot. The furnace lights. It just doesnt stay lit all the time. Stick
to something else. HVAC isnt yours or Stormys field.
Here's a quarter. Go buy a clue.

I have a comfortmaker RPJ2 that has a problem. When it goes on
everything
appears to operate fine. The blower is going the ignitor ignites for
about
5-30 seconds than kicks off. It seems to do this about two times and on
the third time it stays lit and runs. I am suspecting this maybe
something
related to safety that might be kicking in? Possibly the thermocouple
not
registering the heat from the flame?

FWIW - I am not going to crack it open and start trying to fix it. I am
going to leave it up to the pro's that will show up on Monday. However,
I
am trying to get some what of an idea of what the problem could be so
when
the tech starts talking I won't feel so stupid.

Also any thoughts on the Comfortmaker RPJ2 - is this a good unit?
Cheap?
How efficient or old (do they still make this model, etc)?
