RE: Is it the house or the equipment?  

By springswood, 4 days ago

  Not to mention the 50+ year old copper pipes connected to a limitless supply of methane. 1kg of propane? Run for your lives!

  An engineer friend of mine runs a boiler with WC. Because the plumber didn't fit the boiler's internal diverter valve, he had to implement a circuit to fool the boiler that the outside temp is sub ze...
