Biggest Nor'easter in Years!

[mickeysreef <*))))<]

Whose ready for the storm!?!? I hope everybody's fishys will be safe.

I still have a few more hatches to batten down but my son and I are getting ready. I think the real fun starts at 2pm for us.

Picked up an inverter for the car, fingers crossed we don't lose power, but the inverter should be able to sustain some heaters and pumps..

Condo bylaws don't allow for a generator, so this is my only other option if we have an extended loss.

yes ready to start the snow, I will be working a shift of 36 hours : )

Mickey you're near the water, I bet no snow...

we rarely get snow here and if anything it's a dusting. one of my neighbors continually tells me that we do get a lot of snow but I've yet to see it. I installed this the first year I moved in just in case our electric heat gets cut out. just started it up to see if still working and looks good.

I had one of these in my garage for years. Obviously when you need heat you need heat, but since it's not vented it will drive your PH waaaay down in the reef.

Same issue here. I plan on getting a small generator and they can just report me; don't care.

Work closed down at 1:00 so I just had lunch at home and now off to continue our bathroom remodel since I had to fire our contractor last week. Job is mine to do now. Anyway, plenty of gas for the generator if we loose power. Stay warm everyone.

Not only am I working remote, so I can't skip out early...
BUT we are having an Audit this week, so cant leave my computer....
Ugh.
BUT I woke up extra early and got the generator in place in case of loss of power...

picked up this baby on a black Friday sale and it got delivered last week. already got gas and oil in it and have it ready just in case.

We lost power ones while living in Hopatcong for 3 monts , I decide that before I setup a tank a generator had to be first so I got this baby.

How much did you pay if you dont mind me asking ?

 

[mickeysreef <*))))<]

I paid $250 for mine.

 

[Salted]

Having it wired into your electrical panel is the way to go.

 

[deepblue68]

Thats a really good price mikey

 

[mickeysreef <*))))<]

sale at home Depot. maybe memorial day or something

Having it wired into your electrical panel is the wat to go.

Just make sure you turn the main off so you don’t back feed through the line and shock a utility worker.

 

[Salted]

Done. There’s a lockout.

 

[Jamie S]

Snow looks cool with the house lit up.

 

[Salted]

Yes snow really changes the way everything looks. We’re well on our way to being buried here. Getting windy so the inflatables will be going down soon. I have them wired separately so they can be off and all the other lights still on with just a switch.
