Has anybody timed there's. So far I have 13 minutes, but I didn't catch the start. One day I will, hopefully.

Got the whole burnout cycle just now. It was indeed 13 minutes. This is for a 110/150 set at 110.
I can return to the surface now.
 
Why do you ask?
13 minutes sounds normal although I have never timed mine.
 
It's tricky to get down in the basement at just the time it goes into burnout. :)

I rearranged my wiring and attached a relay to the fan leads so that the boiler starts with a Ranco controller set at 135, and continues to run while the fan is running until the internal boiler temperature is satisfied which turns off the demand for heat. The pump runs until the demand for heat, and fan, shuts off, which is 13 minutes after burnout starts. I used a Ranco 2 stage controller and use the second stage for the oil boiler. It works great.
