I just installed my OWB and hot water coil in my duct. What should I set my T-stat (Honeywell round heat only t-stat) cycles at?

I'd set it to 12 because that way you get the maximum amount of cycles an hour to better regulate the temp. Of course it will only cycle on if temp drops below set point.I just installed my OWB and hot water coil in my duct. What should I set my T-stat (Honeywell round heat only t-stat) cycles at?
so your talking to control the fan on the forced air? If that is what your talking about set it to the highest. My Honeywell goes to 12, but if your highest is 7 than set it there.Sorry guys. I installed an extra t-stat for my OWB heat and it has 1,3,5, or 7 CPH. I was just curious what you guys set yours at? Its on 3 right now I think. Last night it was in the upper 20s and ran on 9 minutes and off 13 minutes. Forced hot air
yes because it will regulate the room temperature. If you put it lower it will turn on less per hour but will take longer to satisfy temp because temp may drop lower. For example if you have it set to 3 it will only turn on the blower once every 20 minutes, so your temp could drop 3 degrees in 20 minutes if it is really cold out. Mine if set to 12 so it turns on every 5 minutes, but only if it needs to satisfy temp, but my temp always stays at 70, never drops below unless I need wood. So mine will usually run for 1-2 minutes and turn off. If I had it set to 3 and my temp dropped 3 degrees it could run for 20 minutes or longer until it was brought back up to my set temp of 70 in turn using more wood.will that equate to the least amount of wood burned? I'm willing to sacrifice some comfort for wood savings
