Yeah I'm off to Google to find a good kerosene heater.

on thermostats i have a second thermostat in parrell with the one
upstairs, its normally set on 50 so if my fancy thermostat breaks things
wouldnt freeze.

At least now I have a spare thermostat. Too bad the bases are not
standardized and interchangeable.
