Today I started the process for having the City come out to do a temporary disconnect on our power to do the switch over to the new panel. We've decided to move our meters outside as well as some genius inistalled the water meter with the readable side facing the wall.
We're now just waiting on the permit to be pulled so we can submit the number and get a booking.
We're going to have them provide us a newer upto date meter, and to replace the outside lines as they appear to be sagging and starting to degrade. All this for the low price of $181/hr for the disconnect and whatever we have to pay for materials and the permit.
I also think that this fall, if its in the budget, we're going to try and spray some additional insultation into the attic, assuming we need it. I'm also hunting around for better utility rates so that when the new tank comes online its not such a huge shock to the pocket book.
