D. Blower Adjustment

Because the Cox Heating unit is so versatile in its
application, it is impossible to be specific in

commending blower speed. Obvi

re
quantity and quality of the duct work and the manner
in which it is applied affects the air delivery.

To adjust blower speed to the applied conditions, it
is recommended that the thermostat be set at highest
setting to gain prolonged burner operation. By
