I guess I'm ready for winter. I have new circuit breakers and a whole house circuit breaker installed, the gutters have been cleaned; today the furnace and hot water heater will be maintained and a functional new garbage disposal installed. Anything else will have to wait.
Update.....grrrr, hot water heater is 16 years old, too old to flush as that could cause more damage than leaving it alone at this age. Have to consider a new one at some point.
Update to the update.....to bring house up to code for the water heater, need to install new smaller chimney for it since I have a high efficiency furnace which vents itself. Also discovered the pressure reducing valve to house is no longer functional and must be replaced. We're talking big bucks here. Darn aging house and new safety codes. The furnace better not require anything new, or else. All this will have to wait until new year. It might be cheaper to move. (Just kidding....I'd have to fix it anyway due to code changes).
