Back to work after Wetstock

I had a great time down in Baltimore , and after today I wish we were all still there . A few people asked me how we install these Weil Gold boilers off the floor , so I took a few pics of the operation .

This was in a home with new Pergo floors . My drop cloths took the brunt of the work . We remove the cover completely to work on the boiler . Another pic shows the corrosion from a leaking nut on a globe valve above the boiler . If that valve was located elsewhere , these boilers would last indefinitely .

  • Weil Gold

    1 circ at the boiler . The homeowner told us the new one ran much more quieter than the GE . It's music to our ears when we hear that . The other pic is the steel plate we install the Weil on .

    Ron,

    I can't say anything more than Frank said. YOU ARE THE Master of the shoehorn fit!

    Even with help, I still don't believe I could pull it off in 1 day. See ya next week. Chris

  • Thanks Frank , Chris and Leo

    Was this the Leo at Wetstock ? Chris , are you making it up the day before Brookhaven ? Hey Frank , your table was discussing hard drive crashes for a bit - well guess what ? My hard drive crashed when I got home Sunday and I could only get it to work in safe mode . I'm telling you , the best investment I made lately was the external Ethernet hard drive - I did not lose one byte of data . Thanks guys .
