What is the best way to remove SolAire furnace from 76 Palm Beach? It is in cabinet under sink. Removed mounting screws on sides but still solid. Looks like I have to remove couch at a minimum. Tried cutting it up in place without much luck. At this point I have no intention of replacing it and will use electric heat. Any help or pictures would be appreciated.

I took the kitchen cabinet module out and then there is plenty of access to
remove furnace.

Couch comes out easy. The hardest part will be removing the intake and exhaust pipes from the outside. I ended up using a sawzall to cut the pipes
into halves so I could separate them from the furnace. Let me know if you need any more tips :)

I dunno how the PO got the sol-aire out of mine. It has a nice new Suburban which slides in through the cabinet door after the bottom brace was cut
about halfway down to let it clear. Just put a new $19 Ace Hardware thermostat on it today and tested - headed for Chattanooga in a couple of days, I
might need it.

Thanks for the input. I don't know if I am ready to remove sink cabinet until I can afford replacement. The couch is probably the best way if I can get it out that side without butchering up the cabinet.
