Damn Furnace

So last night right after the radio show, I smelled gas. So, I went to the basement and pulled the cover off the furnace. I noticed 3 of the 7 burners were not burning. Like a moron, I took a match to them Boom...I lost a lot of hair on my arm. So, for the rest of the night, I had to babysit the furnace. Getting fixed today

Would have been an excellent opportunity to cauterize that rankled puss-filled wound on your buttocks.

The nice thing about those close calls is the fact that you can usually tamp out any accidental fires using the pants you just pissed in.

Our house is big and the furnace is huge. There was a lot of gas blowing out of the burners when I lit it up Think is, I really do know better. Finally, the furnace guys are on their way here to fix whatever the problem may be. Then...I will sleep I have been in the basement everytime the furnace fires up. I stand there with a long lighter and the instant the other burners turn on, I fire up the others by hand. I have been doing this for about 19 hours now.

you could have turned it to 100F, and opened windows, guaranteeing yourself that they would never go out and slept.

Yikes, scary one.. glad you had it checked right away.. sorry you need to shell out for a new one, but it's bound to be nice and quiet and more efficient, so thats a good thing.
When mine kicks in, I have to crank up the tv volume it's so loud.. I WISH it would break, since I rent.. they'd replace it damn quick hehe

I just replaced my old beater with one of them there high efficiency units. I'm still amused by the luke warm steam that comes out of that 2" PVC pipe. I do kind of miss being able to warm up my hands on my big brick chimney though.

My brother has oil heat and they told him that the new ones are not much more efficient then the old ones.

Just last November we had to have the A/C serviced because it wasn't keeping the house cool.

However, all through the last half of January it did its job keeping the house cool.

I feel your pain.
