Keeping the heat on

Most Furnaces have a carbon dioxide emergency shut off. If you are waiting for a repair man, this may help.

Our 20+ year old furnace vents about a foot off the ground. My husband kept this relatively clear last night, but fell asleep about 3:30 – at 7 we had no heat!

Once this happens we dig it out – use a broom handle to clear the vent – then reset the unit.

We go to the basement (open a window) and open the panel. For us it only takes a minute or two to reset the sensor and the unit kicks on.

And what were the dogs doing while we tryed to get heat in the house….

2011 Blizzard – February 1

winterAgain02

I’m not sure this picture is any better than last nights, but it IS snowing harder….

We are suppose to get between 11-20 inches, but now they are saying the storm is picking up speed.  If they are right, that would mean less snow.  I’m good with that.  I will try to get a better picture tomorrow. 

Until then – here is what I will be working on tonight.
