After a 4 mile run (33:53) and men’s bible study this morning (currently in Acts 17,) I spent the day working on hooking up my furnace. Last time I worked on it, I positioned the unit, put on the plenums and hooked up the 2” PVC for fresh air intake / exhaust. Today I finished vacuuming the spider webs in the crawl space, hooked up the gas line, and then ran the electric. There are 3 different electric runs—one for lighting, another for an outlet nearby the unit, and the third for the furnace itself. The outlet was actually inline to the power I ran to the gas fireplace / tv / dvd player, and the light I just ran off the existing circuit (but adding a switch topside making life much easier.) It is fun to work on your own place and customize things as you go. Next to come is ductwork and running the lineset to to the condenser unit outside. But once the ductwork is in, I’ll probably run it just as a furnace for grins anyhow.
