A place to ask Canadians questions and get answers. The most obvious questions would be about Canada, but you can ask about pretty much anything; news, current events, society, etc

I don't intend this as an AMA format, but can entertain some. Rules:

  1. Be civil and act in good faith.
  2. No trolling.

It's set to turn off at -10 or below at which point the natural gas backup kicks in. Apparently it can still work down to -20, but it's less efficient than the gas furnace at that point.

And I'm not sure how it holds up, this will be the first winter with it!
