How old is the fan? I would give Kenlowe a call and see what they have to say. When I was thinking of getting one I found them very helpful.

Yes it was. Took relay out and now working fine. Assume relay was for wading switch which had been bypassed. Thanks for all your responses

Be careful. It's likely that the thermostat can cope with the running load of the fan but it's probably not rated for the initial start up surge. Unless you can confirm it's fine with the startup load, I would use the thermostat to switch the large fan load via a relay. Otherwise, you might the thermostat melts just when you need it most!

The thermostat was taking full load the way it was wired which makes me think the relay was to switch the fan off when wading
But thanks for the heads up.
