This is the second night in a row that our temps have fallen below 0 degrees Fahrenheit. Our heat pump/furnace thermostat registered -16F at 2:03 a.m. We have a fireplace insert to supplement our heat and it does a pretty good job except you have to get up every few hours in the middle of the night to feed it more wood. Unless you’re a night owl, getting up at 1, 3 and 5 a.m. gets old real fast. Last night we threw in the towel and just let the furnace maintain a relatively low temp in the house…..can’t wait to see the power bill.
