I appreciate that I have so much extra space, but figure I had three units taking up a lot of square footage, but now I have a single system that is hidden in the basement, and my living room, living room, & upstairs hallway seem so giant to me
When I moved into my household that was in Lowell, MA, I knew I needed to update the heating situation. The previous owner had three separate heating systems. There was a ventless boiler in the living room, a gas fireplace in the living room & upstairs had a gas furnace. Three heating systems for one winter season in Lowell seemed ridiculous to me. The first thing I did was call a MA heating supplier for some suggestions. I Wanted to eliminate dealing with repairs & service on three systems. I wanted to not have to set three temperature controls. I also figured it wasn’t too efficient having three heaters. I asked around, got some suggestions & I changed to baseboard heating via a boiler. I detached all three of my heaters & now I have a boiler in my basement. The boiler has pipes hooked up to it that connect to all the baseboards in the house. It was costly, invasive, & time consuming. At the end of the day though, it was totally worth it. I appreciate that I have so much extra space, but figure I had three units taking up a lot of square footage, but now I have a single system that is hidden in the basement, and my living room, living room, & upstairs hallway seem so giant to me. I also like that the whole apartment is evenly heated. I no longer have to worry about living room piping or bathroom plumbing cold due to not getting enough heat. I am legitimately glad that my local Lowell heating supplier had some suggestions for me.
