Most states in the USA and jurisdictions in Canada have laws that
require the use of Carbon Monoxide (CO) alarms with fuel burning
products. Examples of fuel burning products are furnaces, boilers, space
heaters, generators, water heaters, stoves/ranges, clothes dryers,
fireplaces, incinerators, automobiles, and other internal combustion
engines. Even if there are no laws in your jurisdiction requiring a CO
Alarm, it’s highly recommended that whenever any fuel burning product
is used in or around the home or business that the dwelling be equipped
with a CO Alarm(s). The Consumer Product Safety Commission
recommends the use of CO Alarm(s). The CO Alarm(s) must be
installed, operated, and maintained according to the CO Alarm
manufacturer’s instructions. For more information about Carbon
Monoxide, local laws, or to purchase a CO Alarm online, please visit the
following website. https://www.kidde.com.

    What to do if my Bryant Furnace shows an ignition fault?
    • J
      Jason FaulknerAug 12, 2025
      If your Bryant Furnace displays an ignition fault during four consecutive ignition trials, first check if the gas valve is turned off, the manual shut-off valve is closed, the green/yellow wire is securely connected to the furnace sheet metal, and the flame sensor is not grounded.

    What causes a false flame in my Bryant 880TB?
    • S
      Stephanie HardinSep 3, 2025
      A false flame in your Bryant Furnace, where a flame is detected while the gas valve is de-energized, could be due to a stuck open or leaky gas valve. Check the gas valve for these conditions.
  • N
    Nicholas KellySep 7, 2025
    Why is my Bryant Furnace sensing 24VAC on the gas valve when it shouldn't be?
    • J
      jessica00Sep 7, 2025
      If your Bryant Furnace is sensing 24VAC on the gas valve when it should not be, turn off the power and wait 5 minutes before retrying. Then, check for a stuck closed gas valve relay on the control, or a miswire or short at the gas valve wire.
