Photopilot... The 60A that feed the FAU is primarily for the auxiliary heating element for when the air temp is too cold for the heat-pump to extract heat from the air. It would only kick on somewhere in the upper 20's-ish and that doesn't happen very often where we live (N-Central AZ). The only other thing the FAU breaker feeds is the fan for the air handler - which draws around 2-3 amps. leaving lots left over for the brew rig. I just won't brew when it is really cold! Not likely to anyway!

Awesome on the first brew in the new rig. While not an electrician I did wire my own house and know enough to help out. All my suggestions were based on future proofing your rig and sounds like you did it right. 6/4 is overkill for your current rig but will provide you enough juice for your next one if that happens.

Congratulations on your first brew in the new rig. I maidened voyaged my new brew rig about 2 weeks ago, it's a good feeling. I've been to Payson before, pretty country.
