# How to Remove the Control Door on a Rheem Furnace
The Rheem Manufacturing Company has been producing commercial and residential heating equipment since the 1940s. If your Rheem furnace malfunctions, you can remove the furnace control door to gain access to the burner components. Rheem includes grab holes on the control door to make the removal process simple and convenient. Once the control door is off, you can troubleshoot or repair the burner, ignitor, gas valve or limit switches.
