An interesting stop, if you are brave enough to visit Florida again. I'm glad I already did it, because I'll never return now.

A sugar cane boiler
Do I know anyone who really understands gas #CentralHeating who wouldn't mind sharing some knowledge, please?
Our 12yo #boiler needs replaced, as does the #gas pipe from the meter. The radiators (most 12yo) and water pipes (age unknown) seem OK. Visiting engineers confirmed all this.
Why is the final recommendation to replace *everything*? That seems to be a huge escalation in scope, cost, disruption, and redecorating. If it's legit, I'd like to understand (and not just be upsold).
