    Heating Pads for basement tanks

    Is there an option to have electric heating pads put in the belly of a BH under each tank so you don't need to run the furnace to keep them from freezing? If not, how hard is it to drop the belly cover? Thanks, Sue

    Basement Door Lifts

    OK, I have another complaint. The lifts for the basement doors keep coming detached from the doors. The screws keep reaming out and will not keep them attached. I guess the cheap composite of the doors is not strong enough to keep them from stripping out. I tried refilling the original screw...

    What is it for??

    There is a black vent in the storage area, what is it for? It's not for heat, it actually is counter productive to heat.... Maybe Jim can find out why it's there.
