When the room temperature drops below the temperature selected

on the thermostat, the furnace will switch on automatically.

When the room temperature reaches the temperature selected on

the thermostat, the furnace will be switched off automatically.

Some thermostats have a FAN mode with 2 selections: AUTO

and ON. When set on AUTO, the furnace blower cycles on and

off. In the ON mode, the furnace blower runs continuously.

Continuous fan keeps the temperature level in your home more evenly balanced. It also permits the indoor air to be continuously

filtered. With the unique feature Fan On Plus"', the blower speed can be increased or decreased if desired due to change of seasons,

large gatherings in your home, etc. Simply change your FAN

from ON to OFF for 1 to 3 seconds (or AUTO depending on

your thermostat), and then return to ON. The blower will switch to the next higher speed. There are at least 3 speeds to choose from. If the blower is running on its highest speed, a request to change will direct the blower to return to its lowest speed.

If you own an Evolution Control, simply push the "fan" button to change the fan speed.
