Short answer: It sure does, but not in the way you may think.

First, a quick chronology: I started in the heating industry in 1970 because my father worked for a heating manufacturers rep and he told me this was the best business to be in if I never wanted to be out of work.

I have an undated article from the “Handbook of Construction Techniques,” which McGraw Hill once published. The title was “Keeping a Cool Head.” Consider this in hindsight:

A question asked on The Wall at HeatingHelp.com caught my attention and had me thinking of you.

I’m concerned about what our phones are doing to the way we think and the way we work.  

A project budget sometimes is a loose thing.

I spotted this question on The Wall at HeatingHelp.com. It was from a brand-new parent and it made me smile because brand-new parents think they can control everything their brand-new child does.

Before I retired from speaking in 2016, I spent decades giving talks about heating systems across the U.S., Canada, Europe and even in the Caribbean. Several times, I even did steam-heating seminars in Hawaii. Life’s funny that way.

Ever wonder why the Dead Men painted so many of those old, free-standing, steam- and hot-water radiators silver?

With the old steam boilers this was never a problem because those old boilers contained a lot of water.
