OK ... My turn for a rant

[oxcowboy]

sorry to hear about your troubles, but i have been there and done that. i purchased a doublewide right out of college and set it up on the upper part of my farm. the price was good, the furnace not so good, so after a few years of patching it up by the local furnace man and about 1500 dollars and still a hunk a junk, i broke down and bought an outdoor woodboiler. By far the wisest choice i ever made, especially since propane has went through the roof, and we own 200 acres of land with about 70 being wooded. All the dirt is outside,it burns seasoned or green wood, fill it once a day unless its real cold. my house can be as warm as i want it and has very little risk of fire since it sets about 15-20 yards from the house. After 3 years of use, it has paid for itself, and i still have 17 years of warranty left on it.

 

Best of luck getting everything fixed back to normal, hope ya got an electric blanket to stay warm.
