Dodged a bullet

[Hank70SS]

Our son flew down here last Wednesday to enjoy the warm temps for a week. He was going to stop by our house on the way to the airport to see if we got any mail that was important. He decided to go over on Sunday instead, good thing. House was down to 40 inside, thermostat was set to 53. Found the igniter had crapped out. Luckily I had a spare one and talked him through replacing it, not too difficult. It failed years ago so I bought an extra as a spare. With the temps up there last week I'm sure we'd have had a mess if he hadn't stopped by. Just have to remember to pick up another one when I get home.
