    Bear, I'm thinking that's an OWB?

    Myself, I have delayed lighting off mine; here it is almost Nov for crumps sakes!

    I broke down last week. Warmed up the boiler and and shut down the electric hot water heater and heat pump. The nice thing about this time of year is I can make it 2 to 3 days between fires.
