We've got HEAT!

One of the effects of this remodeling is to move the utility entry point. The electric was moved to a temporary entry point, but the natural gas had to be shut off until it could be installed permanently. So for about a month we've had heat only with electric heaters. They work, but...

On Monday, 12/28, the gas was reinstalled and the furnace restarted. Sort of.

Turns out the thermostat had died. It was one of those nice fancey programmable six ways from Sunday ones. They either work wonderfully or - now its trash. Fortunately my electrician, Matt, had a replacement in his truck. All is warm now!
