Beginning with Unit #5902 the thermostat for the Pro-Sine Compartment Vent Fan will be set to 100 degrees F.
This thermostat is an adjustable snap-disk type with a 20-degree range between cut-on and cut-off, and previously was set for 90 degrees F. This new adjustment will increase the cutoff temperature to 80 degrees F.
If you find that the fan runs too much check the Unit #, and see if this adjustment needs to make. This is a 110 VAC operated fan that is on the Inverter circuit.
If the adjustment needs to be made, Make sure all 110 VAC has been disconnected and that the Inverter is off before removing the cover of the 4X4 junction box. The adjustment is on the back of the snap-disk.
Units Affected: 2003 and later
The fan and thermostat are mounted to the ceiling of the consolidated components bay. To ensure proper air circulation and run time it may be necessary to upgrade this unit if the fan is running extended periods of time even in milder weather.
Note: It is normal for the fan to run when the temperature of the upper area of the compartment gets above 85-90F.
