Roadtime...you need a Pellet stove in your house ....use as supplement heat when home...we use ours full time with the Wife at home...no $$$$ propane....wife keeps it warm 73 to 75 degrees...about $ 180. to $ 200.. a month . depending on outside temp....no smoke smell....even heat through out the rooms....

I'll have to look into that. I know I need a new furnace, The one that came with the house is 100% undersized, would've been nice for the home inspector to inform me of that, I guess it slipped his mind

Let there be light....?

Ok, after debating with myself over the weather, and not liking any places I would want to go right now, I'm back at home for a few days.

Now the strange part. Before I left home after the -38 windchill night, my dusk to dawn flood lights stopped working. Arrived home tonight and they were on, Nice. As I come up to the door the lights get brighter by 50%. Now that's what should happen, they stay at 50% power then when triggered go to 100% for a set amount of mins. However, that feature has not worked since I got it 6 months ago. What ever happened, I hope it continues to work :cool:

And it's -4 with a windchill of -14 this morning..too cold to put out the cats so they're going to whine at me all morning..
Feeling pretty happy the guys filled the propane tank again.$1.40 cash price...is that comparable to where you live?

Not this carrier.... They pay much better then Thompson ... And you've run loads for them where you are at many times am betting. And some nice perks as well! And when I was with Dynamex ran loads back to Canada for them

PS: look over your shoulder! You just earned tomorrow's free lunch!!! Lol...... Poke poke
