Just ben told my flames had orange cause of Heat Exchange getting bad,
there are some visible orange seams starting.My furance is a Heil just put
in June of 1995.
Could the heat exchanger really be going bad so soon. He said, the flames
were dancing around too much.(Our air supply is vented from the
outside..)
Thanks for any & all in-put..

You called the wrong tech. He shoulda been able to do
at least a visual inspection of the HE (using little
mirrors).

If he failed to properly clean the burners etc, that
could cause some degree of orange flame.

If you wanna be certain re HE, I guess you need a
reliable conny-tractor. Ask neighbors and/or check
BBB. Then request inspection (giving no add'l info).
