Hail

Here's a photo of the hail we got last week

Photo_101711_001

I had clothes on the line, and this is what was caught on the waistband of a pair of pants.  I'm sure this is the tiniest hail I've ever seen.  It was more like the size of sleet, but it came straight out of the sky suddenly, hard, and fast like hail usually does.  It lasted for a few minutes and then it was all over.

Furnace Filter Recommendation

We've had an electronic filter on our furnace for a number of years.  We've enjoyed it.  It works a lot better than the throw away filters that you buy.  It's been great for us allergy sufferers, and it really keeps the dust down.  The only drawback is that you have to wash it occasionally.

It has quit working, and we have two options.  We can replace it for the sum of $500, or we can try a 4" filter that will fit in the place of our electronic filter.  It would last for about six months and then we would have to buy another one.  It would cost about $50 a year to buy the 4" filters.  It would take 10 years to equal the price of the electronic filter.

So, I'm wondering what other people use.  Do you use the 4" filters?  Do you like them?  Why or why not?  What is your opinion on electronic filters?
