I kept telling our sibling for years that he should replace his old boiler with a combi boiler, plus then he could just get rid of that old water heating system plus free up some space in his basement.
He consistently said that he wasn’t going to maintenance anything that didn’t need fixing plus all that mess.
He didn’t seem to care back then when I told him about how much more energy efficient these boiler systems are. Some 5 years later, his water heating system started leaking. That’s when he finally asked me about these special boilers again. I told him they were called combi boilers plus he should ask his local Heating & A/C company about them. So he reached out to his local company plus he said he was impressed learning all about the combi boiler systems. They handle all your tepid water needs plus they deliver heating to the home in the frigid season. He had the nerve to ask me why I didn’t tell him about how much cash these combi boilers could save him. I had to remind him that I kept trying to tell him about the incredible energy efficiency, however he wouldn’t pay any attention. He just said something like, “Grab me another beer, will ya?” It was either something appreciate that or he would quickly change the subject plus want to talk about who I thought was going to make it to the Super Bowl. So he ended up having the combi boiler installed plus he was certainly ecstatic about his current investment. When every one of us finally got into the winter, I was enjoying football at his venue, admiring the excellent heating in his home. He smiled when he showed me how much he was saving compared to his old boiler system.
