Scott, et al, re: the subject. I haven't weighed in on the "design problem" on the LNC2 heat valve (circa '86 or so) until now as I didn't want to admit that I had originally installed mine as you described - effectively backward, one might say - and originally, didn't get much heat from the thing. While trying to see why it didn't work so well, I pulled the SCAT off (of course, it was connected to the outer end of the valve, DUH!) and looked inside. My screw-up then was obvious, I was using the "outlet" as the "inlet". I'm sure this was one of those things that just seemed logical at the time. Can't say for sure (it was a long time ago) but I'll bet it was hooked up the "logical" way without looking at the manual. With it connected correctly, I get enough heat to stay almost comfortable here in Northern Idaho.
