I got the Ranco wired up last Tuesday. I gave in and called my electrician. I thank those who offered advice on my doing the wiring. Believe me, I tried several times and just could not get the darn thing to operate, so I called in the big guns. :thumbup:
What a world of difference! So nice to be able to some what control when the damper opens and closes. So I need everyone's input here...I have it set at off at 175 with a differential of 10* What say you?

you now have a new toy to play with...many here run many different settings. after all the time i played with mine i have settled on 150 on ..160 off for wwhat reason...im not really sure
there is enough hot gasses in mine when it shuts down that if there is no draw on teh ehat load anywhere it will rise to almost 170 before the gasses are used up so i left it a little low i guess

glad you got it installed. let me know how that 10 deg works out. have mine set 160 off 4deg deff works ok but always looking for better

i've tried many settings as well. last winter i had mine set on a 3deg diff. @155deg. off. with that setting my chimney would plug up quiet often.now i'm at 153 on and 163 0ff. no creosote what so ever. don't ask why i chose those figures but it works well. by next season the figures might be different.
