Bye Bye Oil Heat!!!

Mommy and Daddy took the plunge and got rid of our old Oil Tank and Boiler and converted to a Gas Boiler. Major expense, but with the price of oil, it had to be done! Plus, that boiler was as old as the house and not efficient at all. Now we have a nice, clean efficient boiler. While they were at it, they had the old broken water softener system that has never worked removed and had a new one of those put in too. According to Mommy she has new skin and hair because of it!!

Some photos from the process on Monday 11/3/08 and Tuesday 11/4/08. Here I am standing by the old oil tank:

And here is the ghost image left behind due to an unpainted area of the wall once it was hauled out:
Here I am standing next to the old, noisy, boiler:

And here's a shot of the old thing being torn apart, yucky:

Here's an up close shot of the new water softening system to the left and new gas boiler to right - ahhhh, how nice:

And a full shot of it all, cover is off of the boiler, but you can see what an improvement - we're all very excited and toasty warm for A LOT less money, plus our skin is softer, hair less frizzy and lime deposits will soon be a part of history!! (No, I really don't know what I'm talking about, but Mommy and Daddy are really into this big change).
