And why was it a surprise?

I received a $100.00 TECO rebate when I got a new stove.
I received a $400 .00 rebate when I replaced my H2O heater.
and
I received a $500.00 when I replaced my HVAC that has a gas furnace as a part of it.

No surprise.... just part of a well advertised rebate program that TECO Gas has. They want you to replace your appliances with more energy efficient ones and remain TECO customers.

Probably, but I don't remember. Had enough to remember about the new thermostat.

I recommend always turning the gas valve off and running the cart until the carb is empty. This way your carburetor will not get all gunked up while in storage.

I would never mess with the gas valves as you run the risk of turning off all pilot lights. This can create a VERY dangerous hazard if there is ever a gas leak
