    The puff switch will open at anywhere between +.06 to +,10" depending on how old it is. The newest ones are set to open at approx. +.10" wc. They are not meant to be adjusted in the field. Check your draft over fire during a run cycle. If it's positive, you have a draft issue. It it's negative, or a very low positive, and the switch still opens then replace it.

    Also you want to make sure the proven tube, tee, and nipple are clean and free flowing. How old is the EK? Possible older model with the baffle?

    No problem Paul. Wasn't sure if you were having some issues.
