It's still 70 in my house, is this a serious question? Do your houses have no insulation?

I don't...think so?

Hmmm. Maybe once for around 4 hours or so. Husband turned it on! It'll definitely be going on at some point this weekend.

Turned it on today and let it run with the windows open to get the dust smell gone so I don't have to listen to my wife ***** about it once it gets fired up.

There’s been a morning or two where I turned it on for a little bit because it was freezing. But it hasn’t consistently stayed on.

No heat yet.

40 outside and 68 in the house. Our house seems to get a lot of sun in the afternoons that really heats up the house.

Pregnant wife working from home in a basement office, I am lucky I have been able to get her to use the radiant oil space heater this long! Heat was turned on this morning because I knew what I was in for if I didn't.

Not yet -- Wifeypoo runs pretty hot, and I just put a sweatshirt on. Daughter, running around in shorts and a tanktop, is starting to complain though.

Got a furnace tuneup Tuesday, furnace didn't work Wednesday night. Coincidence, I think not!
