Yeah, 30's for a low. Following a high of 96° last Tuesday, and 90° Wednesday. Nothing like mid summer to late fall temps in three days!

Post by: Roger2561 on September 28, 2013, 05:11:19 AM: Mid-October is when I generally fire up my CB E-Classic 1400. I have a weeks vacation in mid-October and I use that time to fire her up. I want to be around for a few days simply to keep an eye on things and see how she does. But, if it gets too cold I'll adjust when I get her going but for now with the nice temps I'll wait til mid October. Roger

Post by: hoardac on October 01, 2013, 07:54:57 PM: Test run my new pex-flex supply lines (thanks slimjim) and 6 foot chimney extension and started a fire. What a great feeling to have everything working just right for the winter.
