It's been a busy 7 days. A week ago, Anola Gowin primed the boiler room, painting over WHITEWASH, if you can believe it.
Sunday afternoon found Liseli and Buffy cleaning out around the edges of the concrete floor, so that the plywood would fit.
After a couple of tries, the plywood fell into place.
Now the room was ready for Buffy to paint. All this was in preparation for the new boiler, being delivered on Monday.
Monday: The bobcat made several trips to and from the truck; taking the 6 new sections to the basement and then picking up the 8 old ones. Here's the 1st delivery of the old.
and a wooden flat with 3 new sections.
Don't they look whole (refer to an earlier blog).
Now, putting it all together. Here's Ed measuring the space needed.
Tuesday afternoon the boiler looked like this.
Wednesday!
Thursday found Mike connecting pipes.
This is the "before" photo -- notice the hole in the pipe in the foreground as well as the space around the wall.
Here's Scott repairing the wall and replacing pipes outside the boiler room.
Back inside the room, Ed and Mike work together to get the connection good and tight. Ed's wrench weighs over 40 pounds!
Friday! Now we're waiting on tiny parts for the controls. Hopefully the manufacturer will actually send the right parts this time.

Hello All,
Nice pictures, I really appreciate your experience and I will get good knowledge from their as well. A boiler is a closed vessel in which water or other fluid is heated. The heated or vaporized fluid exits the boiler for use in various processes or heating applications, including boiler-based power generation, cooking, and sanitation. Thanks...
