I am just finishing up installing my Central Boiler outdoor wood boiler. I have run into a snag on how to hook up my existing thermostat so that it will turn on the blower instead of trying to fire the oil burner.
I came across this website when doing a google search and saw this old thread from a few years back http://www.arboristsite.com/showthread.php?t=38961 but it did not work.
I have a Ritetemp 8022C thermostat, down in the basement it hooks to an old (1974) Newmac wood/oil combination furnace. Only the blower will be used the burner is shot on it, I have a backup propane gun on the boiler. The wires go to a circuit board on the furnace above the circuit board I have a silver box Honeywell R8405C1007 and a black box that starts with R8225 (can't read the rest)
At the thermostat I have three wires: Black to W, White to Rh, and Red never hooked up.
At the furnace: Black to W, White to R, and red goes to the black box then out and to G. Two wires connect R & W to the oil burner. Two wires go from two T screws to behind the silver box.
Here's a picture of the furnace circuit board:
Thanks
