LuxAire Furnace Model #:G8T11520UHC11B; 93,000BTUs
I have a new LuxAire furnace in my home and it takes too long between OFF cycles. When I turn it on, it starts up fine and begins heating. After a few minutes it turns off and won't turn ON again for a very long period of time. The heater's LED that flashes if there is a fault does not indicate any faults. I have replaced thermostats with another digital one and with a mechanical one with the same problem. I have turned on the thermostat to max (90*) and it still takes too long in OFF cycles.
Is there a way to adjust the OFF cycle? What could be wrong?Any information is appreciated.
Thanks,
zmanmike

T-stats don't care where they get the heat from as long as they're happy. Where's your T-stat located?

The thermostat is in the living room and it is pretty close to the intake vent so there is airflow near it. If the inside temp is 50* and I put the thermostat on 75*, the heater kicks on right away, runs for a few minutes, then will not turn on for 15-20 minutes. That is the problem. Is this "OFF" cycle be adjusted or is something wrong in the unit?
Thanks. zman
