    So about a year ago you guys might remember my furnace took a shit.
    So after, I discovered a big no heat issue with the hi efficiency boiler.
    Since the boiler was only hot while running, the radiant heat from a hot boiler was not there.
    So lack of fin surface caused my furnace to run twice as much and the house was cold besides.
    So before the heating season I installed 3 radiators downstairs. BIG RADIATORS…..
    So now I have the radiant surface I need.
    Now I know it hasn’t been the coldest of winters but, 50% less is something to pay attention to.

    I am extremely happy and downstairs is warm again..
    And I have unlimited hot water even when the furnace is off for the summer….
    I think it’s a win….

    So I’m 6 months into 60, heck that makes me 60 1/2. Does anyone else have a hell of a time separating papers or opening zip-lock bags. I was ok at 59 now it’s a struggle.

    I swear the candy bar manufacturers are snickering as they think about all the older people trying to break into their products after they made the wrappers out of Kevlar.

    @Tacoma Mike that's great on the heating, since heat raises that is going to make a huge difference when it gets colder next year. I have forced air and registers in the ceiling of my basement. I had 1 return in the entire lower level. After putting a couple more it was more comfortable but no savings on that energy. But that wasn't the goal. I was able to cut out a couple space heaters. I'm not sure the savings I got because of not running space heaters but it sure made a difference in the over all comfort. Nat gas vs electricity. That was 10 years ago.

    We just installed a new high efficiency system. Which replaced our old high efficiency system, no tax credit. Oh well, I got heat and air. Conventional forced air system, natural gas.
