I understand this, which is why I didn't add any and immediately disconnected the can. But I feel like no one is addressing my main issue. That issue is that these pressure readings are not reliable if the aux fan is off, I don't know by how much but I need to know. Maybe I really have like 25 psi, I will never know what the actual pressure is since the aux fan is not coming off.
