Dear Miss Walker: All of the Weil-McLai- fuel and utility people tell the same story that their heating is the most efficient, economical, comfortable . . . etc., etc., etc. Which is really best? S.P. DEAR S.P.: As far as fuel costs alone are concerned, rates vary from place to place. However, the fuel you use isnt nearly as important as your heating system. Its the system that provides warmth and com- fort, not the fuel. Whatever the fuel and any can be used the best system is hot water heating using a boiler and baseboard. This is because The result is uniform comfort and more efficient use of fuel. Dear Miss Walker: My hus- band wants to replace our old boiler to have more space for his basement workshop. I1 know it would be nicer for' him, but if we ever decide to sell our house, will we get a higher price for it with this improvement? J.R. DEAR J.R.: The huge boiler buried under a mountain of asbestos is Not only will the new boiler help you get a better price for your house, but youll find a modern system has many comfort benefits. Modem cast iron boilers are no bigger than a washer or dryer. Some are as small as a suitcase and can be hung on a wall or in a closet, to give your husband room for his workshop. A new cast iron boiler will practically pay for itself in fuel savings. Whether you decide to sell your house or not, youll never regret making lhi3 investment. When you replace your boiler, you can continue to use your present fuel or change to a new one. Cast iron boilers can be used with either gas, oil or electricity. Go along with your husband. old-fashion- ed O-U-- T. |
