Radiant Heating
Since our furnace was on it’s last legs and needed to be replaced, we’ve decided to go with radiant heating instead of purchasing a new furnace. Radiant heating is a bit more efficient and will be better than forced air for me who suffers from horrible allergies.
The radiant heating has been installed this past week and it’s interesting to see the panels exposed to understand how the heat will radiate through the room.

In contrast and for a quick chuckle, here is a photo of the thermostat that the previous owner used. Note the high tech power switch complete with an extension cord that stretched across the room. I’m thinking this is not to code.
