Furnace is probably overheating

A carrier tech told me if the exhaust pipe is too long the furnace could overheat. High efficenty furnaces have to have cool exhaust so the pvc won't deteriorate. If the 15' of pvc pipe you installed is running horizontal than that will surely restrict the exhaust flow.
