" It's great to see them getting this and this junker out here is that you guys -- I think heavy boiler isn't series it's about three while on a -- Bob. Well they're doing a great job go line tied up to it and if I didn't hear -- we have done a great that's. Let's talk about this new one how does it compared to that."
" Until boils it all steel world about a 100000. Use yeah it's 280000. Meters which is about three times the size wow yet do we really need when that date yet we've added second floors were -- Twice as much space and we've also -- superstar which is hot water which are being also becoming office."
" What area of the old house was just -- single about the mini kitchen that was it right -- get three full bathroom reform White House has a whirlpool tub. And we got a laundry system that we got this kind of -- water heating yeah that's that's quite a bit of be to use. How does this thing work I mean how is it super efficient this is much more efficient boiler than was in here. I'm in today's standards you have to be 80% efficient. Which means that out of every dollar's worth of gas or oil that you buy in the -- that's where that could be -- Right -- twenty cent goes right up Lou unfortunately. How many sections that this is an eight section boiler aha so there are eight large cast iron we can't really seen in well look at the top but. Large sections that are almost like lamb chops of cast iron through which the water circulates exactly. End it you'll be putting it together how do you install such a thing."
" We're gonna start by doing two men faults. One on the supply and one on the return and what -- a manifold is it is one pipe. With several pipes coming off of it in this case we'll have four zones OK so you're going to be putting all of these things together to basically create. Situation in Africa or different box exactly all right go to. So now we're going to thread a nipple -- a dispute when that you buy already spread because most of the time most articles are threaded from six inches below. And then anything six inches and over we cut ourselves that it's easier to do if they're longer right out of that worked. Just in like this got a motor in there the public doesn't turn the pipe and this is the back. Exit. And I helped. Chip can grab the oil broad -- oiler."
" All right that's pretty hot and little bit. I just invert it and thread the other side."
" are finished product -- it didn't finish that manifold. That last nipple in place we've now created the manifold. And you've got four directions to go right four zones exactly four zones. We've got 11 floors don't you have to second floor zones one for an office and for the rest yet and we have one. -- for this guy right here OK now what's happening on this first though what you -- my -- gonna put our pump on. And this just gets folded. It's. People destroyed on here. Now what becomes quite clear. I think is that this is not a job for the average do it yourself -- no I would recommend it. And in real time this particular about a day to put together rights were dated to. Prop up the boiler yeah and let me ask you one final question about -- the water heater how -- work. And it's just like his -- he'd bought. Like another roomful of -- me exactly. And they wanted to must loop it to era right in the water hot water from the boiler I donated you wanted to so that coil heats the water that's in the tank. And that's where you get hot water on faucets basically a tank."
