We have heat!

This is slightly old news, but .. we have heat!

The boiler, tubes, and thermostats are fully installed, insulation has gone into the ceiling, and everything is for the most part running smoothly. Our heating bill has dropped dramatically, too. The heat in the house is very comfortable, and rather quiet.

There are a few small wrinkles that we're getting the heating people to come out and address at some point. For example, the hallway is a little chillier than the rest of the house, in spite of having the same set point. We suspect there just aren't enough conductive plates, and they can add more. But it's normal for installers to follow up and tune the system a bit after you've run with it for a while.

All in all, we're super excited about finally having a home that maintains a comfortable temperature! And it's a great excuse to throw another housewarming party in the future.
