I just finished an attached garage reno. We made sure to put R40 at least in the attic space. The main house is lucky if it has R15. The main house was 28 deg yesterday and the garage was a bearable 24 deg. Want to save money on air con and help the tanks? Way cheaper in the long run to rent a blower and add more insulation to the attic..... That's what im doing next week. :-)

Reached a record for hottest day in Edmonton yesterday in recorded history. With the humidity it felt like 43

My heater still turns on in the summer.....

But then central A/C keeps my house at 21C (what's with all this farenheit bs? this isn't merica). And tank being in the basement it's always a couple degrees colder down there. Although I do go through more top off water with the AC running, lol.

I can't speak for anyone else but I'm an old fart who has yet to come to terms with this new fangled metric thing

Hey, us older folks had to make the change to the metric system while in school, so we tend to stick with the Imperial system and have to convert #s
I like to talk about my tank in F, so live with it

If you can't convert imperial to metric, blame Pierre Trudeau, or your school system
Don't rag on us and call it BS

I never voted to change from Imperial to Metric and don't recall the option to do so
