I was always told when the heater is on in my car, it will help my car from overheating. Is this true?

andrearollgr asked:


Sometimes it’s cold in the morning, but warm in the afternoon. Could I light my gas heater and keep it lit all day? Or do I need to turn it off every time that it’s warm enough to not need the heater?
I just want to make sure it’s okay to leave it lit if I need to switch to a/c. The heaters up in the attic, so it’s not easy if I had to keep relighting it.

How come people don’t turn the hot water heater to a level where it’s comfortable to take a shower?

I don’t understand why people have their hot water heater set to a level where the water will burn you or is uncomfortable. Why not set it to a level where it’s comfortable. Then you won’t have to cut on the cold water when you wash your hands or take a shower. You also will save power or gas in heating the water.

What are the concerns about using a kerosene heater in a modern home?

soar asked:


Will this back-up heater be safe and will it make the house smell? What precautions should be taken?
Are the kerosene heaters sold at Home Depot and Lowe’s safe to use in a modern home? Homes built in the mid-70’s.
