in Strictly Steam
Removed leaking old Weil McLainEG-50 installed new EG-40. Small spot, was one of those days were it felt like everything goes wrong, both return pipes snapped, one of the supply runout tees was cracked, it was snowing all day, just one of those days. Once it was fired though we stepped back an enjoyed the sight.

    I can always tell when I start a project if it's going to be a good or a bad day and then my mental outlook seems to continue down that path. Install Looks Great!

    Thanks RI yes unfortunately I really didn't have large expectations for the Giants sooo it was what it was. I didn't expect a shellacking though!!
