WC Jerry,

Wouldn't that also apply to heating systems based on fuel oil and propane? Run out of fuel and you are deep cold do-do.

Also, not sure that there is a requirement that the heating system be thermostat controlled, only that the heating unit/system (whatever that may be) has the ability to maintain *at least* that temperature at the specified winter design degree day temperature.
