OK..I have no idea what I am talking about, BUT...we got a new furnace/Central air unit installed 3 (maybe 4) years ago. On the front of the unit there is something with a PVC running into it and a 5/8" clear vinyl tube running out of it. That tubing seems to merge into a copper tubing that runs to the outside of our house. It is hard to tell whether there is murky water in there or it is empty, but the pump seems to be running and nothing is happening. I go outside to where this tubing ends, and there is nothing coming out. The manufacturer is Beckett, but I there is no other identifier on it (the only reason that I know it's a pump is that it is pulled into a receptacle that is labeled PUMP and it sounds like one). Does this meant that the pump is bad? Or maybe there is a clog in the tubing? How can I check each? And the pump looks like it would be really easy to replace, is that right? Can anyone tell me about how much one would be if I need to replace it? Thanks very much for your patience and any help you can give.
