Really, it got chilly last night and air from the window, tripped the thermostat. I was like, why are the baseboards hot?

Baseboard heat!!!!!!! Big safety issue. Gammy is not happy

Looks like Antonio Brown is on his own right now. I wonder if anyone will take a chance on him with all his issues? Idiot.

Gets hot but not like a steam radiator. Most home around here use baseboard.

Yep, oil.

I had baseboard in an apartment. Never felt warm enough.

 

[Operational needs]

Yep, oil.

Ewwwww!

Who wants to place bets on how quickly this song will make you want to jab your ears with screwdrivers?

We had ceiling heat in Idaho Falls.

gravity heat?

I knew someone who bought an old house with that and to get an FHA loan had to put in a forced air furnace.

it was great to take care of the 3 ft of snow on the roof.

What is that?

What is that?

Wires in the ceiling that radiate heat.

What is that?

Many houses built during the 1960s and 1970s, in areas not served by natural gas suppliers, incorporated electric cable ceiling heat as the primary means of keeping the interiors warm during the cold months of the year. The house builders, before installing the plaster or drywall to form the ceilings, would install electric resistance heating cable panels above it, and then cover them with the finishing materials.

Then, during cold spells, mains power is applied to heat these cables, which radiates through the drywall to the living spaces below. This form of cold-weather climate control suffers most of the same drawbacks as other forms of electric heat; namely, that it tends to cost a lot to operate. But electric heaters, hidden away in the ceiling can be a viable option in areas where only electricity is available for heating purposes.

What I was talking about was oil furnace but no fans to circulate the air. Hot air rises and it circulates back down from the second floor through a hole in the floor. A passive system.

Why not just install electric heated oil radiators?

 

[MyTripisCut]

Why not just install electric heated oil radiators?

Or how about a fireplace or wood burning stove or two?
