Tea on an over-tired morning
Dinner with the ladies from the studio tonight
Knowing I'll have a good car for tomorrow's snow storm
Our plumber won't touch the ventless gas fireplace we bought, and suggested we call a stove/fireplace shop to see if they'll install a 3rd party unit. After talking a bit last night Brian and I decided to return it to Lowes and shop around at some of the nearby fireplace/stove shops so that we can actually see the thing in action before purchasing. They'd be more up on laws/safety issues we may face and would install their own vouched-for units without question. I was really surprised actually that the Lowes didn't do installation or know anything about legalities, given their higher focus on service (compared to Home Depot). Going this route will be more costly, but we want this to be done right, safely and done only once. We weren't planning on getting one this year, but we got a bit excited about the prospect of a less expensive ventless model and the mantle was pretty, so we kind of jumped the gun. In the meantime, we still have our silly electric woodstove. :)
