We were (allegedly) on an automatic delivery for propane. Somehow, the supplier thought we went to another company so did not deliver. We were on fumes. Obviosly, DUH, I need to look at the tank once in a while. Now the way it was explained to me goes like this; the direct vent unit we have comes with or without an off switch for the blower motor. In the event you get down into the "mix" which is basically fumes and the additive, and the boiler won't fire, the mix should be blown back out. That explains why my neighbors all freaked from the smell. OUr's did not turn off, however so we had to kill all power and the valves because I did not know what the heck was going on. Sooner than later that motor would have died ($$$) luckily we had no frozen pipes. The company magnanimously offered us a $25 rebate for our trouble. The delivery guy ( who put $1400 of propane back into the tank) told us we should have gone with oil. And then he told us not to pay for this delivery! only in "New Joisy"......... Thankyou to all members who responded to me that night.
