Christmas Morning...NO HEAT!!!!

Guess our furnace hates Christmas??? Wake up this am to a cold house??? After the pre-Christmas nightmare we endured a couple days before the holiday last year I thought we would be all set but this am....the furnace won't kick on?? I think its electrical...thermostat maybe?? Got a service call in but we will see if we get a call back today!! Blizzard coming...great timing!!!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

That's a bummer for sure.And yes the timing sucks with tomorrow's weather possibly being a factor.

Fire up the woodstove and/or electric heaters.Frozen pipes are not something you want to deal with.

Happy ending! As I thought with a house full of people last night someone bumped into the thermostat and damaged it. I removed it connected the wires and we are good to go! I will pick up a new thermostat later and replace it!!! Nice to have heat!

Larry I have a spare new thermostat if it happens again. I put in a programmable and saved it. If you need it, let me know.
