this is very good advice! I just had some pipes freeze.

The oil guy said I kept it too low (at 60 degrees) I told him he was wrong.

Got everything up to 65 with space heaters and such and then called them back in after a full night of torching the pipes.

Same story - your pipes are frozen.

Long story short. Yes they were frozen but only because a check valve seized up. What a pain the a$$ to convince them that you as the home owner think something else is going on with the furnace.

They wanted me to get a plumber which would have been BIG bucks!
