    Furnace Fan...
    Definition of "On" & "Circulating"? The Furnace Fan has 3 Settings (On,Auto,Circulating) I set the Fan to "On" to keep the Air moving or so I thought.. Was told Fan should be set to "Circulating"?? Thoughts Appreciated , Cheers Thanks...

    I assume those settings are on the side of your thermostat, right? What brand/model do you have? All that I have seen say ON/AUTO and I leave mine on ON all of the time to constantly circulate the house air.

    It's a High Efficiency Lennox Model.. The Thermostat is an iPad Size WiFi Control.. When you Tap on Fan Icon a 3 chose Setting pops up. On / Auto / Circulate... The Furnace Fan is a 2 Stage type.. According to the Manual lowest fan setting runs at 40% , then when Burner Kicks In Fan speeds up... My original query is what's the difference between "On" Constent vs "Circulate"??
