The hot tub is a big enough pain in the ***, couldn't imagine maintaining a pool. Do they have smoking hot pool girls? That might be pretty cool.

actually the pool is easier then the hot tub, you can be pretty far off on chemicals and still be swimmable as there is 18,000 gallons of water. I'm always ******* with the hot tub, is either high or low in chlorine, its never just right

i havent got the salt generator, but on a side note draining two thirds of the water completely hammered the algae, pool looks beautiful. I got 480 lbs of pool salt ready to go!

I ended up putting the mattress from the dpwnstairs bedroom in the livingroom that night.

The only places still open had no air conditioners left- that being home depot and lowes.



I would have slept in the downstairs bedroom but that AC was not on at all that day and it was like 100 degrees in there! Would have taken too long to cool it off.



It was 71 in the livingroom though.



Went the next day and got a larger unit for upstairs, now it freezes us out. I would get central air but I dont think Im keeping this house that much longer.

It's still weird to me, to think of a house with no central a/c.

Yes, but we don't use it. We use a wood-burning stove in the winter.

we just use a space heater in the bedroom at night, the heater in our system is basically a giant coil that heats up and the air handler blows air over it, costs a fortune to heat a barely insulated house.

I just have to help my split wood every year, we usually get enough to last us through the winter. Wood burning stoves get freakin' hot, it doesn't take much to keep the house warm. Well, the upper half of the house anyway.
