Winter is coming

[coastie]

Dont forget that winter is coming. Time to check the snowblower, get the furnace inspected, chimney cleaned etc. Better now than when all the other people are doing in Sept and Oct.

Get your gas treatment and antifreeze as well! I checked my boots last night!

 

[MA_Shooter]

Already been working on the snow-blower.

Got this weird feeling we might be paying for this hot dry summer with a good old fashioned winter.

 

[Hanwei]

Thanks for the reminder! I gotta get the furnace inspected.

 

[Tommy Gun]

No, I will not thank you damn it.

I just started to forget about winters.

I was got a wood stove at the end of last winter to add some heat redundancy but with limited use I think it is much too small and a POS. I have some fabricating to do to get it ready for winter thanks for the reminder.

I putting in a complaint for language on this thread..

You said... Winter.

Damnit, not you made ME say it.

 

[Yazz]

What about Edgar Winter?

 

[Bill Katt]

Johnny Winter?

 

[Fixxah]

Still putting off Spring cleaning. Too early to think about winter but RR1 will tell you how close we are to Christmas.

And while you're busy not forgetting to get your chimneys cleaned.....don't forget to go to Carl (member CRSIII) to get it done!

 

[Maxpower]

Don't forget to check the auger and put new leader on the tip-ups.

 

[FPrice]

Already had the chimney cleaned, have the furnace scheduled for December, and looking at an Ariens snow blower at Home Depot.

Check your generator also. Battery Charged, oil full, no leaks or other damage. You did remember to store it corrcetly with Fuel Stabilizer and 'fog' the carb and cylnder with oil, didn't you?

Keep some fuel on hand too, after the mix change over; it is a better quality fuel for storage in the winter. Also store the highest grade fuel possible from a well used station.

Thank you for reminding me that the end is in sight and the heat will end eventually. My favorite and 2nd favorite seasons are soon here (Fall and Winter).

I'd love to use the fireplace in the winter but it isn't really efficient... I feel like more cold air comes in through the "cracks" anyway. I would love a woodstove, but I don't own the place... maybe the landlord can be influenced

 

[Rockrivr1]

Woohooo! Bring on the snow. Furnace-Check, snow removal equipment-Check, Ski's ready-Check, winter gear ready-Check, snowmobile vacation booked-Check!! Ready for Winter. THE best season of the year.

Oh and lets not forget the most important thing, 115 DAYS LEFT UNTIL CHRISTMAS!!!!!

Fireplaces really only warm up the room they are in. Otherwise, you are correct. They draw air in from outside. Cold air.
