Came across a very old looking furnace yesterday. Believe it was converted to gas forced hit air. Anything special I should know about this, first time I’ve come across this.

When you click the yellow square with the mountains in it, you can choose the file you want and upload it. Then, do the same process again. I believe the limit per post is 5 pics.
