Check the temperature shown on the thermometer after 20 minutes and if it's not within five degrees of 175, you'll need to get the oven professionally calibrated. A medium oven means a temperature of around 180 degrees Celsius. This is a good temperature to choose if you are not sure of the temperature you need. This temperature will work well for everything from pies to cakes and even pasta bakes. A high oven means a temperature of around 230 degrees Celsius. Temperatures this high are mainly used for fast roasting lean cuts of meat and fish. With a little bit of practice, and sticking to these temperature guidelines, you can make the most of your produce and use your oven to its full potential", "The various standard phrases to describe oven temperatures include words such as cool to hot or very slow to fast. For example, a cool oven has temperature set to 90°C (200°F), and a slow oven has a temperature range from 150–160°C (300–325°F). A moderate oven has a range of 180–190°C (350–375°F), and a hot oven has temperature set to 200–230°C (400–450°F).

The maximum temperature of a home gas oven is 537.7 degrees Celsius (which the heat reached by self-cleaning ovens during the self-cleaning process). For ordinary cooking, the maximum temperature used is 287.7 degrees Celsius. The maximum heat of an electric oven depends on the brand and the model.

Their hair is grayish brown but, at times they look grey-green in color because they move so slowly that tiny camouflaging algae grow all over their coats. Sloths are nocturnal and sleep curled up with their head placed between the arms and the feet drawn close together.

Sloths rarely climb down from the trees and can live for up to 30 years.", "Baby sloths have a gestation of five to six months for some types sloths and as much as 11.5 months for others, such as the Hoffman's two-toed sloth.

The tough leaves in a sloth's diet are difficult to digest. Sloths have a four-part stomach that slowly digests the leaves with bacteria. It can take up to a month for a sloth to digest one meal.

There’s nothing like a heat pump for air conditioning in Seattle summers and for heating in the Northwest winter. There are 2 popular kinds of heat pumps used in Seattle, the air source or ducted heat pump and the ductless heat pump. We’ll discuss both. A heat pump is energy efficient. Heat pump manufacturers say a heat pump can save you 30% on overall cost of heating and cooling your home. Most Seattle utilities agree and have provided heat pump rebates. In fact PSE customers who replace their electric furnace with a forced air heat pump can get up to $1000", "Types of heat pumps. An air source heat pump can provide whole-house heating and cooling when it is fully-ducted throughout the home. These systems are ideal for new home construction, or added to existing forced-air systems. Adding a heat pump to a forced-air furnace will optimize the efficiency of the heating system. A ductless heat pump (or mini-split system) makes a good retrofit to homes with “non-ducted” heating systems.

Be sure to choose an ENERGY STAR® compliant unit and hire an installer familiar with the product and its installation. Like standard air-source heat pumps, mini splits have two main components -- an outdoor compressor/condenser and an indoor air-handling unit.", "A ducted heat pump replaces your current forced air furnace and connects (often with a few slight modifications) to your current duct work. Like ductless mini split heat pumps a ducted system still has an exterior unit that will be installed outside your home. Since heat pumps aren’t using electricity to actually create heat, rather just extract it from outside and then blow it through your duct work, your costs for home heating will be less then if you stay on oil.
