So I have a 135 year old Victorian. New windows and furnace. But 14' ceilings. I just put in a Harman Accentra. It does a pretty good job, but I do have it in my main living room. It has steps across the room from the fireplace. I have a lot of heat going upstairs, which is good. But my questions are:
Because the room is so wide open and heat goes up the steps, I'm thinking to use the stove temp setting and throttle back the feed rate, but leave the fan on high.
Also, any thoughts about use and placement of fans? So far so good though. I have shut the downstairs furnace zone off. Definitely a help
- What are some optimal settings? Room temp or stove temp? Feed rate? I use it to break the chill.
- Best place for the room sensor? They had it under the stove.
- I am not confident that the room sensor is the way to go. I have seen it shut down, but not start up. Likely I'm not being patient enough
