Warming Up

We have heat!  Our new high-efficiency gas furnace was connected today.  Since it’s starting to get pretty chilly outside, we are happy to finally have some warmth.

As you may remember, we removed the old boiler and oil tank.  We decided to change over to a forced air system, so we removed all the rads.

 

The new furnace is from KeepRite.  It has a 95% efficiency rating, which will qualify us for the highest grant amount through the government energy programs. 

Gas Meter

Enbridge came to install our new gas meter, which meant our poor front lawn had to be dug up again. But, they installed it nice and low. So, with some more landscaping, hopefully it won't be too much of an eyesore.

Boiler Removal

The big old boiler and rad pipes are finally gone! Thanks to Stu and Phil for helping out. The boiler came apart into pieces which made it easier to remove, although one section weighed over 200 pounds!
