Yea my wife misses the water too.  We just finished up a master bedroom addition and have a nice new tile shower and we can't even take long showers in it now with the boiler being shut down.  Only 5 more months though.... :thumbup

Been off for 2 months.  This "cold" snap has my electric furnace running now.  Have to deal with the lack of hot water.  It does make a huge difference!  I'm 100% cleaned out now and there is no way I'm firing it back up till October.

Got my pool up and running and trying to warm it up with a solar cover.   >:(  I've been looking at pool exchange tubes and such.  Really itching to get another source hooked up to the stove!  Maybe I'll have something up and running by this fall.

I have an electric heat pump that apparently doesn't work anymore.  It would be great for this weather we have had recently.  It was 62 in my house this morning.  There's no way I'm firing the stove back up though!

I’ve been firing the waste oil boiler up at night and heating 700 gallons of water up to 190 then that lasts till at least a day.
