Howdy! just did the main pipe insulation and am now cycling on pressure toward the end of the burn. It was a warmer day. At what point does this become bad? Is some cycling on pressure ok? Thanks. T.0 -
Thanks for the reply. I dropped my run time from 80 min to 50 min. from the same outside temp day last year. This could be a 25% reduction in fuel.0 -
