Finally had to fire up the Furnace

[CincinnatiKid]

Woke up this morn and the cat was sleeping next to the space heater. I knew it was time.
My furnace is gas and annually freaks me out upon lighting.
Hope this winter is milder than last. I bout froze.
Stay warm...
Peace

I was telling my kids the other day, that as soon as Halloween is here the weather will turn cold!
Right on time, I woke up to rain and way colder weather!
Stay warm CK!

I awoke this morning to 63 degrees. Furnace wasn't doing its job. Changed the batteries in thermostat. Took them out of AT Pro.

Such a sad feeling having to take batteries out of detector to use else where.

HA! I guess you've got to do what you've got to do!

Woke up this morning 68 inside, 42 outside. The 1500w space heater is still good to go. Hard to beat 6" of wall insulation. I am still setting up for the small, multifuel heater that is on the way. Wood is free, electrify is gold plated. I just have to install the thimble in the wall and hook it up when it arrives. When it checks out, I will add 50' of copper 1/2" tubing around it and tie it to my 2000' of PEX in the slab. From then on, it will be a toosie warming 68 to 70 floor to ceiling for just the cost of running the circulatory pump. I put the original heating system that I made in when I built the house. I have been heating it with a 40 gal electric hot water heater but electric rates continue to climb.
The new heater is an Army , new, 18" X 24" unit I got from Sportsmans Guide. (G4D-582586) It can burn heating oil, jet fuel, wood and coal. It comes with all the controls and fuel tubing, flue pipe and a cast iron grate for wood. It requires no electricity so when the power goes out, I don't freeze. Liquid fuel is gravity feed. Hay, it was under $200. Frank
