I think the drain pipe that connects to the front of the furnace is plugged. Anyone have any suggestions on what I can use to unplug it?

If you have an air compressor handy that works well... Either that take a long stiff wire and run it up the pipe... If neither of these work than just cut the pipe at the front of the furnace, but make sure to leave enough pipe so that you can glue on a coupling to reconnect the pipe... Take the pipe and flush it with water, and make sure that the pipe going into your furnace is clear...

Done this a 1000 times. Use a wet and dry vacuum and suck the line out. After it is clear one a month pour bleach in the drain pan, this will keep drain open.

bleach and water (50/50)...pour it down the condensation pipe. Wait about 60 seconds and bang on the side just a bit and it should go straight through. You may have to repeat it another time....it works great for us!!!
