Re: Fan fixes: Which one?

["David Teitelbaum" <jtrealty@xxxx>]

The main problem all of these systems attempt to correct is the 
tendency for the origional relay or the bypass to fail. I think that 
they all can acomplish that but the Fanzilla is the only one I know of 
that also restores the functionality of the fan fail light AND 
sequences the 2 fans so they both don't start at the same time. It is 
also the easiest one to install, not requireing any modifacations to 
the wiring except upgrading the circuit breaker and replacing the 
otterstadt switch (recommended). The biggest problem is the wiring 
system AND the cooling system MUST be in good, origional condition. It 
cannot make up for coolant leaks and air, wiring modifacations by 
previous owners, burnt wires, loose connections, etc. The only 
negetive comment I have heard about Fanzilla is it is too expensive, 
never about it's quality or function. The other alternatives are less 
expensive but in some cases require some effort to install.
