I don't usually mess with the inducer. I set it then walk away, but it might be a good idea to excersise the motor by turning it up when I shake and reload.

After following this topic, I have noticed one thing. When I reload and seconds later I see blues coming up, if I open my front loading door the blue flames start to go out, close door and they fire right up instantlty. I dont no if its because of less draft leaving MPD closed or what during reloading is helping?

Something like this will work if it is in your temp. range...

STOVE THERMOSTAT

It is just a single pole switch wired in series with the hot wire to motor.

I just bought this off eBay for my convection fan on the Mark III. Can't beat the price! http://www.ebay.com/itm/400378981407?ss ... 1439.l2649

Good price for sure. :)

IOF would want one that OPENS on temp rise for the inducer.

The one above with capillary bulb is an adjustable type, for seasonal settings.;)

Thanks guys. So, which one should I get? The adjustable one or a standard snap switch? The one Smitty posted won't work? That probe thingy from the first ebay link , does it go into the pipe?

Yeah mine closes on temp rise - not good for a draft inducer. You want it to shut off on rise. Search eBay for OPEN ON RISE SNAP SWITCH. Should be something on there I'll bet.

Thanks, Smitty. I found one that is adjustable from 130º - 175º that might work to turn the inducer on when it gets too low.
