There is built-in delay for blower to come one. Off delay is adjustable by dip switches. Inducer blower purges vent already before ingnition comes on.

"pfjw@aol.com" <pfjw@aol.com>: Dec 27 05:31PM -0800 The 'anticipator' lives on the stat. Not in the system. 'Lowest' setting. It is still between the gas valve and the valve's power source. That is the specific issue.   Peter Wieck Melrose Park, PA

"pfjw@aol.com" <pfjw@aol.com>: Dec 27 05:40PM -0800 For the record, 99-44/100ths of all residential forced air systems do not, repeat!, do not have an independently forced return. They are closed systems with what is best described as a "plenum" (central) return. Usually it is a large floor duct somewhere near the furnace. Essentially, it is the make-up air for the supply.   There is a great deal of bad information out there. Please DO try to verify any information from a reliable source before taking any irreversible action(s).   Peter Wieck Melrose Park, PA

But, not to be snarky, there are vanishingly few residential systems out there with forced returns. Few, even in commercial forced air systems. I was involved ONCE (1 time) with a system that had fully ducted supply and returns, this in an academic building of 425,000 square feet. It also had oxygen and CO2 sensors in the classrooms, ran on a VAV based system using constant-velocity variable-vane axial fans on both the supply and returns. It was a high-volume, low pressure system to reduce noise and maintain high air quality. It could vary from a minimum of 10% 'new' air to 100% new air. That, for the record, is the only forced-return system that I have been directly involved with - others exist, I am sure - but mostly in commercial/institutional applications, and most of those also VAV based.   Peter Wieck Melrose Park, PA

"Kenny Cargill" <me@privacy.net>: Dec 28 09:42AM I used to fix TV's and with that came many faulty remotes. I dismantled them, washed the membrane, buttons and case with Fairy or similar and cleaned the carbon pads and PCB with Servisol switch cleaner and/or isopropyl. Broken PCB tracks could with care be fixed, often with conductive paint, and breakages around the legs of crystals & IR LED's were common and easily fixed or replaced.   Kenny   "John Heath" wrote in message news:24bea72f-83ac-4a88-8e3d-17f413057537@googlegroups.com...   On Sunday, December 27, 2015 at 4:31:28 PM UTC-5, N_Cook wrote: > pushing your fingers through mock leather covering on the long edge > farthest fromthe hinge section. That edging traps the mock leather in > the gap between the 2 case parts   This reminds me. Take a cell phone picture of the front of the calculator first before disassembling. All the buttons will fall out making it a challenge to put them all back where they belong without a picture for a guild. Been there done that and I paid the price for not taking a picture before hand.     --- news://freenews.netfront.net/ - complaints: news@netfront.net ---
