Spoke with Deb at Heating Help today

I have been meaning to pick up the rest of Dans books, I have read greening steam and we have steam heat, and I have EDR {no fitter should be with out that one}, but I have wanted to pickup pumping away, pri sec made easy, and lost art of steam, and I just haven't had time, well I just learned we are going to go out of town to my inlaws {in Florida, we leave Friday}, and it dawned on me I have nothing to read while I am there. I read a lot in my free time and since I haven't had much of that it hasn't been a real issue.



So I called in to place the order to see if it was at all possible to get the 3 books before we leave on Friday and Deb said she would personally bring them to the post office today!!! I can't wait and I am very thankful, what great service with a friendly phone call, much appreciated...

I also have been putting aside making an order for a couple of new reads from here..





I have the Lost Art of Steam heat book, it alone will keep you busy for quite a while. Tons of great info in there.



Have a good trip

Thanks, guys!

Debbie is the straw that stirs the drink. We're lost without her.

Received my books today

GREAT, here with time to spare, now I have to stop myself from reading them before we leave, won't be hard since I have 3 days of work to get done in 5 hours...



Thanks again to HH for helping make my time with in-laws a little more bearable...

So we are in Florida

not really a vacation, kind of the opposite, but I read pumping away and primary secondary today...

I put about an hour into the lost art of steam, and I think that is going to be my favorite to date, it has a different "mood" than the others, I feel like Dans telling me a story while unloading a ton of info in all his books, but in Lost Art, I feel like we are having a conversation, very well done...



One funny note- I am reading the book and he explains a problem a friend of his ran into with a steam pipe that the installer unintentionally installed a new boiler with a lower water level and ran into a huge issue, well about 15 years ago I did the same exact thing, I was working at Fleet at the time and replaced a steam boiler for a customer, the first time I heard it BANG, was upstairs taking the check from the customer as the other 2 guys were cleaning up, I thought the boiler was coming through the floor and we were all going to die... I figured it out after a little investigated and ended up repiping and lifting the boiler, almost 2 days worth of extra labor...



Anyway, I can not wait to get back home, but the books are helping while I am here...

Glad to hear!

That you're enjoying the books, but mostly that you're surviving the relatives. ;-)

Thanks Dan

I found something to keep me busy, my father in laws pool heater has been giving them issues so I took a look at that and replaced the HSI, they wanted to switch to a hybrid water heater so I am doing that today, and their neighbor also wants one so if Re Mikes has another one in stock I may throw theirs in too...

Plus the reason we are down here is to empty a relative that passed aways house and help with arrangements, so that has been keeping my wife and kids busy too.. Hopefully I can start heading back by Friday, since I have a ton work stacking up at home...

Could be your new Southern branch!
