The one thing that would stay the same as calling the HVAC repairman for heater maintenance twice a year and on an occasion when it would need boiler repair.
I had done extensive research on heating systems before shopping for a new heat and AC product for my house. A friend had advised me to consult a heating dealership before I made a final decision. Since HVACS has changed so much over the years, a recommendation would be of practical importance. Two recommendations stood out: an electric heat pump and a gas boiler. When the cooling specialist saw how conflicted I was, he told me I could combine the two for a hybrid heating system. I love the idea so much that I could not wait for the furnace/heater installation. I had also always been curious about a hydronic heating system, so I asked how it worked. The general idea was also very appealing, but the heating expert lost me when he started explaining how I would want my furnace to be second-stage heating. The radiant floor heating would be the primary heat source, and the heater would cycle on only when the radiant is not covering the demand. I reverted to my initial idea. The one thing that would stay the same as calling the HVAC repairman for heater maintenance twice a year and on an occasion when it would need boiler repair. Calling the heating business when it was time for HVAC maintenance was something I was conversant with, so that would not be a problem. I was excited about this new project. It was a costly venture, but it would be worth every centavo. Before the installation, I busied myself with my new kitchen garden and picked out wallpaper for my living room.
