Yes, it is a wick type Ralph. I've really had a great run with mine. and it's probably the best $150 I've ever spent. I hope you're doing OK down there. Finally got through to Toni, and she told me that a warm up is on the way after this storm
Is yours the one that has the wheel inside with the ring going around keeping the wick on top wet?
We're doing fine here in the NE Dallas area. My house seems to be well built for the cold. We lost internet, TV, and landline for a day. It might be slowing or halting the vaccine shot.
