LARRY BRUDZYNSKI Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 I haven't been here long enough, but when I was at the Ford dealer we had waste oil heaters. They were always blazing out heat, the dealer didn't have to pay for waste oil pickup as often and were saving money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaysonfordtech Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 The waste oil heaters I have worked around seem to heat great in the summer, but when it cools off they quit working, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Warman Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 We do have a couple of young-uns who seem to like it tropical... Nothing worse than working up a sweat and then going out in to sub-zero.... I don't do anymore than keep the thermostats reasonable.... Both the big guy and myself get a little agitated when the heaters are on and someone decides it's time to leave the overhead doors open... If people aren't comfortable, they wont work too good... Not to mention the "human respect" angle.... after all, we don't bitch about the jungle of electric space heaters we have to avoid in the offices every winter (please unplug this one if using the photocopier and that one if using the fax).....

Mekanik Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 The last place I was at, one year we all planned a "walk out" unless they got the heaters working. I think it was late november and all of the heaters were inop. My boss sat at his desk with a big winter jacket on. When the heaters were working, it was a big deal to get them to turn them on. That was the coldest shop I ever worked at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
