new furnace!
woohoo! the new furnace has been installed:
this thing is all energy efficient (not the highest 96.6% efficiency rating, but damn close at 93%). it's also damn quiet. like one of the quietest furnaces i've ever heard in my life. if i open the door to the basement, i can only very faintly hear the blower.
they're coming back tomorrow morning to do the dehumidifier.
