When I first moved into my cabin I wasn’t content by the boiler system in the basement.
It was big, ugly plus took up so much space.
The boiler required metal grates in my family room floor. The plan is that the heat would rise from the boiler in the basement plus then overheated my family room plus family room. I didn’t savor the look of it at all. I am thankful though that I had other things on my mind. My new home had bees nests in the walls that I needed to take care of. I also had a severely old family room. Those things took precedent over a heating system I didn’t like. I ended up having a full year in the new home before I was financially able to remove plus spend money for a peculiar heating system. After a year of using the boiler plus enjoying its benefits, I no longer wanted to substitute it. Yes, it is big plus ugly however it is mine. The boiler system is so powerful. My family room plus family room are toasty overheated when my system operates. I also realized that I can use the boiler as a overheated water furnace if I wanted to. Recently I l gained that if I ever put in a pool, the boiler can serve as a pool heater. It can even have piping connected to it that extends underneath my blacktop plus be a snowmelt system for my driveway. How exciting is that? My favorite thing about the boiler is how durable it is. No service, furnace repairs or any though plus my system just keeps running.
