In connection with the current construction project, the old oil-fired heating plant is being replaced. The new gas-fired system, with the intriguing name of "Munchkin," is so much more efficient than the old equipment that in only four years it will have paid for itself in fuel savings! The Munchkin boiler, which will also heat the domestic hot water, extracts so much of the heat from the gas fire that the vent is just a piece of plastic pipe.The photograph above is of the old boiler; below is the space on August 20 when the boiler was removed (in very messy surgery) to make way for the new equipment.
