To get them to commit to a Monday delivery we had to prepay for 150 gallons... Otherwise, they would have been here 'maybe Tuesday' if we wanted to give them a check for the total delivery...
Considering the wind, the temps, the fantastically insulated Olde Farmhouse, and the present float indication on the #2 containment vessel, I didn't feel comfortable pushing it to 'maybe Tuesday'...
I am awakening to a cooling house. I've checked the furnace, and it is shut down. This could be, and likely is, because the tank is dry.
In this situation, I often have to prime the line again. My burner doesn't mix well with too much fussing, but I needn't even try that until the delivery is made.
I've also scheduled a burner cleaning and servicing for this morning, so having it at a moderate operating temperature may not be an entirely bad thing.
There are other parameters to this situation, however; how cool to let the house become, and how to integrate the fact that I'm supposed to go to work today, well ...
Le Sigh.
