Lightning today. Stay out of garages and unfinished basements. Ceramic tile is conductive too. Concrete surfaces with direct contact with Earth is the same as being outside. Just drier.

Pretty soon we will be running our AC units. Here is a very good video on what is going on in the HVAC trade. Avoid these companies that send out salesman. They are there on commission and will tell you whatever it takes. For service, get a PSEG worry free plan. They do installations too. But make sure you find reputable owner operated contractors. People like me who care what you think about them. That is a character trait and not all people have. People are people.
I had an old school doctor who once explained it to me best.

Hello friends. I've posted some stuff on battery backups before and wanted to share this with you. If you have a hot water tank that is gas and vents to a chimney flue you're ok if the power goes out. But if you have a high efficency with a direct vent to outside, it will have a motorized exhaust motor. The heater will not run if it is not powered to remove the carbon monoxide from the flames. Also the fan runs only when the unit needs a flame and shuts off when the tank is hot. This allows you to use the battery somewhere else. A larger one could do your furnace or boiler and hot water as they both run intermittent. The unit can be charged by your car, a regular outlet, a generator outlet or solar panel. Be like me. Buy a s**t load of stuff and hope you never need any of it. Enjoy the game tomorrow. 🙂

It may be ghetto, but it will work. You want to prevent snow build up or being sucked in to the air intake and shutting down the unit. The exhaust is hot. 10ft 1/2" emt cut in half to 5ft. Ends smashed, driven and screwed down with 1/2" emt straps.
