Rheostat Settings Needed

I have an Alaska Channing 3 with a direct vent. I had originally asked about a rheostat that would work with my stove and another member suggested a site to buy the correct rheostat. Thanks Now, I want to do the install. I would like to add a rheostat to control the output of the combustion blower as to leave more heat in my stove and to get a better burn. I also have a barometric damper too so setting the draft is possible. I've been reading this forum for a while and have never come across the correct procedure for setting up a rheostat, and draft using a Manometer. I was wondering if someone here could share their wisdom. Is it done with a low fire, high fire, all the above, etc. Also, I just bought a Dwyer 2 Manometer.

That one will NOT work. Most direct vent motors (and stoker and convection motors) are shaded pole motors.

Go here: http://electricmotorwarehouse.com/kbwc.htm and pick out a 5 amp control. That will be plenty for your DV blower motor.

thanks for that info Chris , i was thinking of doing the same and didn't know that.

Euro: I ordered the 6 amp version although I think the blower only puts out 1.5amps. Thanks
