    Thank you so much..

    I can't really use a Whit positive pres. switch.
    These are N/C and open when pressure is applied,

    Whit used these to shut off the fuel feed if the chimney/vent became plugged

    I need a switch that CLOSES ON PRESSURE to act as a safety and open if the room air fan stops. (An add on idea instead of having to wait until the beast overheats)

    Thanks again for the offer.

    Doing some component testing this morning.
    I am running one of the Phase angle controllers on a room air fan sitting here in the floor.

    Things are fine accept the control called for a 1m ohm pot and if I get the ohms above 35K the voltage is way too low.

    Going to call the Manuf in a bit and see if I can use a 35k ohm pot

    I need between 0 ohms and 35K ohms to really give me what I need.

    The PHS120A6 Phase control will go from 0 to line voltage

    Below 80 volts is worthless to me.

    Well in my case meds lowered ticker rate and no longer running pellets lowered temps in the house and in particular on the basement stairs one gets a good case of pulmonary hypertension caused by low air temps. It sucks getting old.

    Plow truck broke.Got all neighbors plowed out,sent them a bill,and informed them,probably down for the winter,partially because truck is old,secondary because none of them have paid me .Old 203 transfer case,chain climbing the sprockets.(the mechanics here understand that).They were warned,I probably will be able to do my own driveway,rest of winter(gently),and informed them,being older truck,lack of parts,lack of garage,they are now on their own.Next 5 weeks might be interesting,LOL.
