Oh boomersooner you made me giggle there, yes with all my blood pressure worries earlier on that were wrong, i could well have needed a heart pump lol, Yes it is now installed, only took 2hrs, and it is wonderful, it was freezing in the house because all the ranchsliders had been open for the workmen, on a cold rainy winters day down under, so i put it on 30 degrees opened up the doors upstairs, and WOW i was so cosy, and it did warm upstairs nicely too, the rooms are usually freezing.

I have wanted one for ages, and the government started a new scheme to insulate older homes giving us a 1200 grant off the total price, so it made it really worth while , we got a 6.5kw model, larger so that the heat can travel upstairs,and hubby is going to work on a way to get the air con up there in the summer as it is stifling up there.

While we have had a few very warm days so far we have had a very mild summer here in Alabama. I can see that the northwest and west are really catching it this year. I hope you continue to keep the hot out west. Our high for today was around 80 and for us this time of year that is nice.

Oh yes i am in pure heaven, really, i cannot believe the difference , there is no comparison, i had a 2.4kw oil finn heater, and that was all, i was often very cold and upstairs was like a fridge, now with 6.5kw you can imagine, i throw all the doors open and now i can sit in comfort on the computer as it is warm in here, i don't even have to wear a sweatshirt,it is wonderful and the kitties are loving it, although Ash is a bit put out, he loved to sit almost underneath Mr Heater, and i can tell he is missing it, i think that kitty electric blanket is probably a purchase i am going to have to make now.

The kitchen is so warm as it blows in that direction more, so in the summer the air con will be in there blasting me away, it is going to be fantastic.

It also helps my arthritis and aches and pains, as being warm is about all you can do to help the pain, and it won't make it go away , but it will help.
