Realize this is an older post, but I had a similar code thrown on a Bryant system. Solved the issue by cleaning the flame sensor probe with #0000 steel wool. I'm pretty sure that's one of the code 1-4 solutions. Simple cheap maintenance fix that's worth trying.

IC means the fixture is rated to be in direct contact with insulation.

I'm not sure I would suggest glazing a ceiling, it's kind of difficult to manage a large unbroken area without leaving "burn" marks - glazing dries really fast so it's difficult to be consistent. Maybe I'm not understanding - are you talking about the wall surface above the wainscoting height...

Yes, I'm suggesting continuing the same raised panel up to chair rail height as a wainscoting application. I doubt the ceiling tiles are covering drywall, (but maybe), usually those type of acoustical tiles are stapled to furring strips. The raised panel technique could be done over a new or...

I did install drywall prior to the car-siding application. I had the advantage of knowing I was going to fabricate all new door jambs and replace casing and base moldings. Keep in mind that car-siding is 3/4" thick so consider how you will case the door frames, ( I used 1x pine ripped to 2.5"w)...

Here's an example of a job I did with a similar application. Used T&G pine car siding and applied venetian plaster/glazing to wall surfaces.

Check with your local building department. In Chicago it was 48" to the frost line. In SW Missouri it's only 18". I'm pretty sure the frost depth in Iowa is at 42".

It sounds like you may be confusing sewer drains, (inside your house and ultimately connected to the sewer system) and your homes exterior drain tile system. Two totally unrelated systems. If you have a drain outside of your basement slider it is probably connected to the foundation drain tile...

If it's a cast iron drain, have someone flush a toilet or drain a bathtub full of water on the upper floor of the house and stand next to the area in question you should be able to hear the water flowing. Is it in-line with a steel I-beam supporting the floor joists down the middle of the...

1. Is condenser fan running? (outside unit) If not could be bad fan motor or capacitor (looks like a soda can inside outdoor unit control panel. If it's bulging it's bad). Be sure to turn disconnect off before exploring the internals of your AC unit! 2. If filter was really dirty you could...

Looks like really cheap Chinese chrome plating or your using really strong cleaning solvents, (like the acid in liquid drain cleaner!). Opening the wall should not be necessary if the drain shoe is PVC it should unscrew you can add a little heat (propane torch) to soften up any plumber's putty...

Try searching online for the Sherwin-Williams paint visualizer, allows you to upload a photo of your room and then change the colors to see how they look.
