I didn't think we had as many commuters as we do. I was surprised by those numbers in the survey.

THREE HUNDRED DOLLARS for the repair. :eek: And that included a 15% discount, & no fee for the service call since we have a plan. $300 for 10 minutes. Unreal.

Had that happen with a dryer about 10 years ago. Dude from Houston showed up and spent 15 minutes and charged me $250. The part was a $12 part.

I know. But it was 0530 and I was half asleep. Not much sleep the last two weeks taking care of momma(unplanned c-section), our 2 yr old daughter, & 2 week old son. With all the sleep I'm lacking, I didn't think I should be playing with a gas appliance! :eek: :D

With your 2 week old son, fixing your furnace yourself in wintertime should be the last of your concerns!

I had a similar thing happen - my furnace broke, I did a bit of trouble-shooting and saw a burned out resistor on the PC board of the control unit. yeah, I could of figured out where to get a replacement board, ordered it and repaired it, but that's at least a day or two, with momma at home with no heat.

Yeah. She'd like that. Called the repair man and it was fixed a lot faster.

That's the other thing. We have an older home, & by the time I was able to call the repairman it had dropped to 58 degrees in our home! :eek: No time to waste with a newborn in the house. Fortunately it was less then 2 hours from the call to our heat working again.

Heh - we had almost the same thing happen, early Dec 2009, our daughter was 2 weeks old when a winter storm hit and the power went out. Talk about some wide-eyed parents! We called a friend who lived nearby who had electricity - stayed the night there. Think the house got down to 55.
