I'm going to order the filters and then build the box.

So....you know....next.

I'm also trying (and failing) to convince both my brother and mother that warming their cars up inside the garage with the door closed is a bad plan  [bang]
If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

Morning.

Theoretically the boiler guys are coming back with my new and improved (aka working) sensor for the boiler.

Hot water would be nice.

Though after the last house that had no water.....I don't object too much.

It's a Bosch combi.

Very efficient-our gas bill went way down.

Do you have nat gas, or propane? Being where you are it's likely nat gas.

We don't have the infrastructure here. Propane is...a pain comparatively.

Compared to the old house, we spend less for the additional propane than the wood we burned to be friggin cold

Yes the new boilers are efficient. [thumbsup]

Natural gas. I'd really like to run it out to the shop

After my mom died, the not my day guy came to Buffalo, got me and my 3 sisters, drove us to Florida, and then put us in an orphanage. After just under 5 years there, he gave us to the state.

We were split up and have never all been together since.  My oldest sister ended up taking in 5 siblings from her druggie neighbor. She could not bare to see them split up. We were foster kids and now she fosters.


And in spite of all that, you're an amazingly remarkable and wonderfully cool human who we're all lucky to know and call "friend".  :)



I thought numerous times over the past few days with many hours of windshield time and no cell signal driving over desolate and stunning mountain passes of what I imagine Statler deals with on a regular basis and how grateful I am for the relatively quiet life I live and for him and others like him doing what they all do.  Thank you Statler.   [bow_down]

Hot water fixed!

Good thing too because I've been doing insulation work.
