1st thing, Great Site!! been lurking for awhile, and it helped me make up my mind!
Background:
CB 6048 bought used it's a 2008.
Getting prepped for the install. Forms are in, we're pourng the slab Monday.
Current heat is forced hot air system with oil burner, and a Harmon XXV Pellet stove.
I've found so many answers to so many questions, but I have a basic one.
After I get the HE plumbed in and the furnace online and ready to go,
what do I need to do to bypass the oil burner and just run the fan?
There must be some sort of safety that keeps the fan from running when the burner's not burning?
I'm assuming that all I need my thermostat to do is to start the fan when calling for heat?
I probably won't be using the burner for backup, although I'd like to keep that option open.
Unless we're going away for an extended time I'll probably just keep the pellet stove as backup.
Thanks in advance...
