Pellet heads!! What's up today?

Cannot get link, but here is the screen shot:

 

It looks like it is still available under today's cyber Monday deals. Shipping I'd now three weeks out versus me getting mine Friday.

Fixed the link....should go direct to Cyber deals

 

Finally remembered that I needed to clean all the cobwebs out from under the burner tubes for the propane boiler. Then fired up the boiler and let the water run for a couple of minutes to ensure no pipes had frozen (it was in the teens this morning, and 25 now - dropping to teens again tonight). Once all the pipes felt like they had warmed up, I shut it down and set the thermostat for 62*, just in case.

Since the FHW pipes run thru the unheated garage, although there is a fair amount of insulation around them, I like to ensure they are run 1-2x/day once we start getting in the teens. During the really cold weather, I turn on the Therm Guard and have it run 3x/day for 8 minutes. If we get into a real deep freeze like last year, I'll set it for 4x/day.

Got a quote last winter to winterize the pipes -$500. Figured it was cheaper to run the boiler a little bit. And since it took me $500 to run the Thermguard and supply all DHW for a full year, I say it was a good call.Plus I heard that winterization is hard on the pipes. My luck is bad enough I don't need to temp fate

 

Look under Cyber Monday deals. For the next 7 hours it is $139

 

Thermguard is a great little unit....used one in the previous house for a set of pipes on the 2nd floor that went through an unheated attic......never had an issue.

 

I checked and it was on the top right of the cyber deals - much better price than what was showing for the link that Imacman found. Course since I've bought something similar before, it might be in a different row for others.

 

Holy Cannoli - the Kindles look like a great deal. I got a Fire a couple of years ago, reconditioned for more than what they are going for.

 

BTW - if anyone sees a nice little digital camera like a Canon Powershot SD100 (or similar), let me know. My old one is starting to have issues.

 

Yep, I bought the same one for my Fahrenheit furnace to go along with my battery back-up system. Hopefully it switches over very fast otherwise it goes to the computer duty Was $155 cdn, not bad!

 

The one I have in my stove currently works like a charm. The stove doesn't miss a beat.

 

I fixed it....the Cyber deal link is in my post now.

 

I've had the Nikon CoolPix L22 for about 4 yrs and I like it....takes great pics.

The updated version is the L32:

Today is the 1-year anniversary of our pellet stove being installed. Worst winter in at least a decade immediately followed, so the darn thing has already paid for itself. I did treat it to a new combustion blower a few weeks ago, so all it got today was a quick cleaning.

 

Was it a used stove?

 

Nice! The only link I could get was the one that showed I bought it lol.

It is a hell of a deal for anyone interested in stove protection and being able to shut down the stove, or have enough time to get the genny going, in the event of a power outage.

 

His sig says '96

 

Guess that answers that . I do most of this on my phone, and unless I turn it sideways I cannot see the signatures.

Just wanted to make sure he wasn't replacing the combustion blower so soon on a new stove.

 

Yep, very used. Motor started rumbling. I pulled it and it won't even go 2 turns if you give it a hard spin. Convection blower is next, I can tell. Probably order one this week.
