more on the heater

Okay, so the guy made the call. And damn he was young! 28 but he looks younger. The control panel is sending a signal to the inducer intermittently. So they are supposed to contact me tomorrow with parts availability and price although he is suggesting the heater be replaced. It's 21 years old which I suppose is a good lifespan for a heater.

Since tomorrow's a holiday, most likely no parts then. The timing of this thing sucks.

Oh, I am sorry to hear that. We had a similar problem. but it was our thermostat. We needed a line voltage thermostat, who ever had the house before us had the wrong kind installed. How it passed inspection is beyond me. But, we fixed it.:) I hope you are keeping warm.

I had a problem with the thermostat but it just needed new batteries. I'm so glad I figured that out before calling in - and paying - the experts! Before that, I hadn't even realized they took batteries. ;-)

Thank you. Hopefully this will be resolved quickly. I'm going to have to wake up a couple of times in the night to make sure it doesn't get too cold in the house.

Sorry to hear that, hun.
Do you have a space heater that you can use in the meantime?

I have two. So far the heat will eventually kick in, but if I get to the point where it doesn't, I'll start using them.

Oh, shoot, I was hoping slowing the wind down would help.

I was really hoping that too!
