Question about Honeywell Electronic Programmable Heat/Cool Thermostat - CT3300A100 Heater
RHEEM OIL FURNACE MODEL ROBD 067 LBEA BLOWER NEVER SHUTS OFF. THE BURNER LIGHTS THE BLOWER STARTS BUT THE ONLY WAY TO SHUT THE BLOWER OFF IS TO TURN OFF THE 120 VOLT SWITCH FOR 15 OF 20 MINUTES. THE FURNACE WILL KEEP IT AT TEMP BUT THE BLOWER NEVER STOPS. ALL 4 ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS HAVE BEEN REPLACED BY MY DEALER WITH NO LUCK. THE THERMOSTAT HAS BEEN TRIED. THE FURNACE HAD A-C IN MY HOUSE BUT NOW IS USED FOR HEAT ONLY IN MY SHOP. IT IS 4 YEARS OLD. I WENT TO GAS IN THE HOUSE.
You will likely need to install an isolation relay in the W circuit from the thermostat. Some thermostats rob a small current through the W circuit to power the thermostat. This small current can be enough to start the fan circuit timer. You can test this by disconnecting W at the furnace and allowing the timer to shut down. If the fan shuts off with the W disconnected you can install a simple relay.
The relay coil will be connected to Common on one side and the W from the thermostat to the other. Then you will run a wire from R on the furnace to the relay and from the N.O. Contacts to the W terminal on the furnace. This will kill that signal that is starting the timer and the W can steal it's power through the coil back to common.
