It's Getting Cold

Being a Native Arizonan, morning temps in the low 60's are on the cold side for me.

It reminded me of my heater. Last winter, I couldn't get any heat at all. I replaced the thermostat, checked heater controls but still couldn't get any heat.

The fix was to reverse flush the heater core. Mine was full of sediment and blocked water flow. So if you’re not getting enough heat, try flushing out your heater core.

Man, at that temp I'll still wear shorts and a t-shirt all day long and wonder why it's so hot outside.

Flushing heater cores out every once and a while does help though. Not bad for the block either.

Yeah it is getting rather chilly for us Arizonans, but it beats the heat
