First day to use the AC

Well warm weather has finally arrived.
Yesterday I got in from out on the road at around 5:30 and the house was 80F ++ and so I flipped on the AC for the first time this season.

Looks like it will soon be time to clean the Pellet stoves up and have them ready for Fall.

Have not built a fire in over a week now.

The Quad came on twice last week in the weeeee hours and took the chill off is all.

Supposed to be a tad bit rainy next week but warm though.

Been a great stove season with a lot of changes here as far as the stoves go.

Next fall/winter will be a lot easier for sure.

I still have some things to finish up on the new hearth project but that will come over the summer.

Need to urethane the exposed wood frame and the shelf above the stove plus remove the stub of the old chimney pipe and cover the wall thimble.

Hope that this summer is a great one for all you folks here at the forum.

I will check in from time to time over the summer but it may be on a less frequent basis than during the last few months.

Well we did use the AC for about 4 days off and on.

BUTTTTTT a very unseasonably cold storm is expected into the area later today with snow levels down to 3000 Ft in the mountains.

Started the Advantage this morning as well as ran the Quad one cycle.
House was at 63F and with rain and wind its likely not going to warm much today, at least not indoors.

Strange, strange spring this year for sure.

No AC gonna run here for a while.

45F out right now and I have a nice little fire going in the prodigy for the eavening.

Likely will run the stove all night and then shut it off in the morning before heading off to work.

Sure feels like late Feb early March outside tonight and not the middle of MAY.

Still cold and wet today.

More of the same for the next several days is what is forcast.

Stove on this morning to warm the house up, will likely leave it off during the day today and then see what shakes out for tonight.

If the sun pops out for a while, the house will warm up easily.

Cleaned the Prodigy last night and got it ready for another go round.

This Morning the Quad came on at around 6 or so and got the chill off by the time I crawled out of the sack.

Sure hope we are not doing this stove thing come June

Must be the GLOBAL WARMING ??????

Hmmmm, House still chilly.

Started the A2 and will let it run, at least until we head off to work today.

Just very unseasonably cold around here.

Just looked at the weather forcast for Fairbanks Alaska and their getting 70 today, Hmmmmmm whats wrong with this picture.

Snowy

Still cold with rain and wind.

Last night we had mixed rain and snow for a time.

Ran one stove all night last night.

Not sure if I will leave it on all day or shut it down.

Weather just sucks for sure.

Maybe next week we will get a little warmer and drier.

Snowy

Still cool here.

Quad ran last night a couple times and tomorrow there is more rain forcast but slightly warmer weather though.

Really making up for the El Nino Winter we had for sure.


Snowy

Yesterday was warm and very nice, today is sloppy wet and nasty.

This rain is getting very depressing.

Stoves still on standby. Quad ran yesterday morning for one cycle.

Warm last eavening and had the windows open till after midnight.


Had hoped to be all done with stoves, pellets and nut shells until fall.

OH well.

Still have a few things to do as far as my hearth project of the late winter.

Been looking at getting stocked up on next falls pellets too.

Will not be able to do anything with nut shells until fall now.
