Fire in the hole.

     Today Bob came out to the house and began the boiler/ burner install.

    While he was fitting pipes to the inlet and outlet side of the boiler, I bought the fuel tank around leveled it up on the side patio and ran a new fuel line and shut off valve.

By the time I had completed that, Bob had installed the circulator, the expansion tank, the boiler drain valve, and the water fill line, as well as installing a pressure relief valve and a check valve. He also installed two shut off ball valves so that we could fill the boiler with water and test for leaks.

After testing for leaks, Bob installed a new fuel filter, purged the lines, and bled the air out of the system.



Finally, Bob fired up the boiler.  What a big milestone today.
