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.

All the steam-savvy contractors that post on HeatingHelp.com were commenting on this steam pipe. 

When a contractor orders something from you, do you say, “Excellent!” or “Great choice!”?

Take the time to be helpful. Just take the time.

Jerry is never wrong, but he is surrounded by people who often are. Always.

Wirsbo introduced Engel-method PEX to the U.S. market and promoted it for radiant-heating systems.
