Burnham ES2-6 boiler (128K BTU output) and two Bradford White Defender hot water heaters (40gal 38K BTU output) All three units EnergyStar rated! The boiler was working when we got home, and the first floor was toasty! After bleeding the radiators of air, they all seem to produce more than enough heat. The second floor radiators should be just fine for the amount of heat needed. |
We decided to begin the blog as an historical record of our first home purchase in Glendale, NY. We intend to highlight our successes, and equally important, explain why we chose to "do" a particular thing, or why something did not work, and we tried again. All this while keeping energy efficiency and eco-friendly building/remodeling practices at the fore of our planning and execution.

Heat and Hot Water Heaters, oh my!
Yesterday, the other Bradford White hot water heater showed up, and was installed by the plumbers. Kenny, the plumber, also figured out the boiler issue--a faulty module was preventing start-up. All better now.
