Hey everyone, I just ordered a magnehelic gauge for my stove. I have searched and couldn't find anywhere on what wc measurements my stove should have at low and high fire, i have not called pelpro yet i just figured someone on here may know. Also would it be more accurate to tap into the firebox its self or just tee off of the vac switch line? I plan on making a bracket and mounting it to the back of the stove i would love to see how you guys have done it.
 
Sorry no one got back to you ... no mag here so no words of advise:( Hopefully someone will chime in that has a gauge or knows the wc reading you need. Have you tried searching the forum?
 
Well I got my mag today and started the install, heres a few teaser pics I still need to make the bracket to hold the gauge. I drilled and tapped the side of the fire box which I think will give the most accurate reading. I know the coil is probably over kill but I would hate for the teflon tube to melt and its just stuff I had laying around, more pics to come...

well it seems that i am getting my best burn and heat output and its pulling right at .15", drops down to around .12" on low heat. its kinda cool how the reading changes as the burn pot gets dirty, i think it will be a nice tool to keep the stove running the best it can, and hey gauges are cool!
