7-10 threads
the purpose of a flue baffle is to
increase heat exchange
which conditions would cause the temperature limit safety switch to shut of the burners

when the burners of a furnace are ignited, the blower motor operation is delayed to
allow the heat exchanger to warm up first
to react to a change in temperature, the fan/limit switch in a standing pilot furnace uses a helical shaft made of
