71°F converts to 21°C.
I wonder what it will be tonight, the temps will be down around 57°F and we always have fans cranking in the windows when it's nice and cool out..........

If thats a load temperature, thats very good. If its a idle, its pretty good/average.

Wickerman:
Are you using an SLK-800? Is there a fan ontop of the HS also?

Click to expand...

It's a Volcano 11, no fan on the HS.
I had a TT smart fan on there before I attached the vent right to the HS.
Now that I know it's working good, I am gonna make an outfit to attach the vent out of sheet metal.......

My uncle gave them to me, I am not sure where the guy he got them from purchased them........
I tryed to find them on Fasco Industries web site but I couldn't find them.....
It would be nice if they were 12v instead of 110.....
Maybe I should get a couple defroster motors.......
