OK....there is no fan only setting (I told you it was old). So I have it turned on with the thermostat at 1, the highest temperature.

Then I'll turn it to a higher number (lower temperature)....slowly.

Unfortunately, this is about the time I hit the hay......so I may need to rush it a tiny bit. Pumpkin (one of the fosters) Is actually puffing. They are after all, on the third floor.

I understand your explaination now, Phred, But I have consistanly kept the unit on and at 4.5 (remember, it goes 1 to 8).

I never turn it up or down, not these days.
