I'm reading about another issue that is a little more than bug dust.
Lightbulbs!
We use the high efficiency light bulbs for practically everything. It is just the smart thing to do to save nickels over the long haul.
BUT - I need the old fashion lightbulbs in the well house during winter. Cheaper and more reliable than to heat tape the submersible feed, the booster intake and out flow, the peroxide injection, the three pumps, the pressure tank and so forth. As long as the well hous remains above 32 degrees, all is good. Now they have outlawed common light bulbs. They want me to buy 200 feet of heat tape it seems.
