State Farm here. Maybe the service depends on the local agent? Some years back when I was in town getting a haircut, we had an oil furnace malfunction...caught on fire, backdraft somehow smoked in the house. Cindy turned off the furnace...the alarm company called the fire dept. Lemme tell ya, it's a bit of a shock to drive home to see fire trucks at your house. Fireman to me, after removing furnace sheet metal to see what happened.."Tell your wife she did the right thing." She sure did...even got the Mustang out of the garage, parking it at the neighbor.

But what impressed me was that our local State Farm agent was there before the firemen left. Results were not a dime out of our pocket, smoke damage repaired, new gas furnace to replace the oil...hell, he even said they'd buy fire wood for my wood stove...I just pointed to my full wood shed and told him not to bother.

Yes, it sure coulda been worse if Cindy hadn't shut off the furnace...
