A new problem suddenly popped up on our new 2005 KS3910. We have been running the air most of the time (fulltiming) and yesterday we began to hear a sound that was sort of like bacon frying, or rain pattering. In fact I was working on the pc and in the back of my mind though a soft rain had started. I looked outside and saw it was sunny, so I turned to the stove to see if something was cooking.
Turned out it is a crackling sound coming from our forward zone output ducts. I removed the vent from two of the forward duct openings and in one duct opening was about a 2 inch square of something that looked like aluminum foil, though a but stronger. I removed it but the crackling sound continues. It is just loud enough to be quite annoying.
Anyone know what is going on or had a similar problem. I am thinking of going to Home Depot today and picking up a 50 foot fish tape (something I need anyway for future wiring jobs) and attaching a small rag and pushing through the duct to see if I pick anything else up.
Would appreciate any tidbits anyone has to offer on this.
