I'm working a top of 5.2 million gallons of propane at my latest project. . Nice knowing one mistake and you'd never know it.

I was thinking of doing that addy propane ventless but seems propane down here is expensive and I guess that is because a lot of people use it .Plus the guy told us we would need two of them
We have a advantage, a sunny day and our living space jumps up to almost 80! The windows all face south with the sun low in the winter it comes in and warms us right up! We keep the bedroom unheated, love it, sleep so good in the winter.

The last time we filled our propane tank it was 0.99 cents a gallon. I dug a hole for the tank so we have a buried 500 gallon tank.

1. i'm surprised there was any area that didn't have a pond already on it where you placed the propane tank.
2. it gave you the reason to start digging and i'm surprised it wasn't a 5,000 gallon tank.
3. I'm surprised there hasn't been a change to your profile like 22 ponds.

Laughing! Dear hubby has been wanting me to dig more ponds, me I say NO! got enough to take care of. Which really is no care except yanking plants that grow too well.

We have insulated type blinds on the big windows, dual pane, the honey comb type, never shut them except in the summer, ow the AC has trouble. I open and close as the sun moves around. In the winter I leave them open.

I have insulated blinds but to me you can still feel the cold coming through them .I thought triple pane with the argon gas in them would be a great investment .Well to me not so much .I had double pane argon gas anderson windows in NJ with storm windows on the outside and the worked so much better .I think storm windows are the better option but sad to say vinyl means no storm windows and because mine tilt to clean them inside I don't think you can put on storm windows .Geeze I cannot even find storm windows for the basement windows which are double pane vinyl clad wood .Seems like they are special order ,used to be lowes and home depot sold storm windows but not anymore .I used storm windows in the shed that I got at lowes ,but I never thought to buy them for the basement or even see if they have that size
