The family lives on Stimson Street in a home that didn t have a fully functioning furnace. I would turn it up to 70 and not feel anything, Kurin said.
When Kurin was 7 years old, she and her mother moved in with Kurin s grandmother. Theyâve lived in Cadillac since 2011, when Sally moved up here from the Sterling Heights area.
Sally said the same furnace has been in the house since they moved in. Over the years, it has gradually become less and less efficient. We have to keep turning the furnace higher and higher, Sally said. Sometimes when no one else is here, I turn it down and just put on a sweater.
