I decided not to buy the cold air return kit, and I just butted the furnace filter out up to my cold air return and it seems to work fine. I will seal the edges with aluminum tape.

It's interesting that neither manual states what the thermo disc actually does, but it looks like it replaces the high limit disc inside the rear electrical box and is relocated to the top of the stove.
I know. I was wondering if the furnace runs hotter with the cold air return hooked up to it. That's the only reason that I think they would relocate the thermal disc.
I bought a Honeywell 5000 2 stage thermostat and was hoping to use this to control my tundra and my LP furnace for back up, but I can't figure out how to wire it. Anyone have any insight on how to do this?
I use the filter box kit very much like what your doing without the return hooked up . Works like a champ for me every 10-14 days I install a new 3m filter . My old furnace didn't have a provision for a return or filter box so I appreciated this feature .. It really keeps the dust and fine ash or smoke from getting into your ductwork
do you have a phone number for them? I can't seem to find it.
thanks for your quick reply!
awesome so far. 10 degrees outside -11 windchill and with the thermostat hooked up its keeping my house exactly at 68 degrees where I have it set. Really stinky new paint smell at first though.
I may never leave the basement
I fired it up a few days a go just to try it out. I didn't have the chimney liner in so I only had it going for 6 hours. I got the duravent liner installed today so this is my first real fire. I'll let you know tomorrow morning after I fill it tonight before bed.
