Temps dropped a lot in the past few days. Overnight low was 22 last night, 20 is forecast for tonight. I think Saturday nights low was in the 50's.
Our gas furnace did run for a short time early this morning but the heat pump provided enough heat to keep the house at 71 degrees almost all night. From everything I've read the heat pump is MUCH more efficient (less expensive to operate) that even the most efficient gas furnace. It will be interesting to see how much are electric bills are this winter.
I got my leaky water valve sealed up today. I think I might still have a drippy connection under the downstairs sink, where I put in the new faucet a month ago. I tried tightening a fitting. Hopefully there won't be any water in catch pan when I check in the morning.
I finished the "ductwork" under Kelsey's bench this afternoon. Not really ductwork, just built a box to direct the air from the old register out to the new grill. The bench turned out nice. Kelsey is going to paint it. The "seat" is 3 pieces of 3/4" plywood that lift off for access to the storage space below.
Tomorrow is packing day and then it is off to TN Wednesday morning.
God is good, may he bless you and yours.
