I just had a major flood in my house, in addition to it is all because of the heating system that is currently in my basement.
- On the plus side, I am going to be able to afford my new heating system a lot sooner than I thought that I would, but on the drawback, it is because my aged heating system caused a huge mess.
I have a boiler as my heating system. When I first purchased this house, I was pretty impressed that the condo had a boiler. I didn’t believe a lot about boiler heating systems, but since it wasn’t common, I was glad. I had always used a heating system in the houses that I lived in previously, so I thought that it would be cool to live in something bizarre for a change. However, looking back, I wish that I wouldn’t have gotten the boiler. Nobody told me that boilers are entirely inefficient. If the temperature is above 40 degrees, boilers are entirely efficient. However, boiler heating systems have a strenuous time heating the section when the temperatures outside are cold. I live in the North, so the boiler always has a strenuous time heating my house… Also, boilers do not look as pretty as normal heating systems. Another concern with the boiler is that it relies on water. This seems enjoy a wonderful thing, but when my heating system started spraying water in the basement, I realized that it honestly wasn’t a wonderful thing. However, I am going to have to replace that boiler with a new one since I don’t want to switch heating systems right now.
