Very nice shave, though a bit rushed. We’ve had people here working on the heat since this morning, but luckily enough hot water for showers in between it being broken.

Terrible time of year to have the heat go out! Murphy’s Law, of course.

It didn’t get too chilly inside, luckily. It was only in the 30’s (F) today.
The heat is back on, by the way! The burner is less than 2 months old, and they replaced the (pardon me for probably getting some of these parts wrong) igniters, nozzle, primary coil, and CAD cell (flame detector). Just threw a bunch of parts at it until it worked (a valid method of repair, sometimes!).
I’m glad we have a service contract which is about $400 a year – we got our money’s worth with the old system, and again it’s proving to be worth it with a brand new system.
