Mission Accomplished!

     The furnace with an installer arrived at 9:00 this morning and it was in place by 1:00. It's a bit of an upgrade from the old one. It has both a two stage burner and a two stage blower. The circulating fan, when the furnace isn't heating, provides a gentle breeze.

   So what went wrong last week? How did a 80,000 btu furnace get installed where a 60,000 btu one was ordered?  It was mislabeled at the factory. The installer didn't discover the mistake until after installation.  When the furnace was started it vibrated because it was too large for the filter. With careful inspection the installer discovered the discrepancy.

   Perhaps I mentioned in a previous blog the humorous part. It comes with a ten year parts and service warranty. Think about how old I'll be in ten years.😃When I retreat to the OFH for winter I'll drain the pipes and put anti-freeze in the traps. However, with a brand new furnace the chances of the house freezing up is minimal. 

Takk for all,

Any guesses about this photo? It's a structure familiar to most from an unusual vantage point. It's the Eiffel Tower looking up from inside.
