My 315RLTS is brand new and furnace hasn't been used. I turn it on by the T stat and blower comes on for about 10 seconds then shuts off before any heat comes out, then sometimes nothing will come on not even the blower. Any ideas as to the problem?

Do you know the model # of your furnace?

I know this will sound stupid, but are you sure the tanks are filled? 99.9% of new sales will have full tanks, but maybe that got overlooked especially if the furnace operation wasn't covered during the PDI. Next, close both valves and (if you have one) make sure that the tank change valve is fully one way or the other, then slowly open the valves. Next make sure that all of the burners on the stove can be lighted at the same time to make sure that you have suffecient flow and the lines are purged. Once you get this far, turn on the furnace. Feel an outlet and see if you feel air blowing and listen close to the furnace and see if you hear the igniter clicking and attempting to light the flame.
If you are sure that you have gas and the fan is blowing, as howson mentioned, first suspect is sail switch. If you still don't get anywhere, with this you have to decide about going back to the dealership service department or contacting Customer Service and asking for a mobile tech. They pay for the parts and labor, you pay for trip charge.Jerry and Kelly Powell, with Halo, Nash, Reid, Cleo, Rosie, and the two newest additions Shaggy and Bella..
