In Reply to: Hot water heat posted by Case e on July 19, 2014 at 21:17:50:
We have hot water heat (some radiators in certain zones, some baseboard in others and radiant heat in the floor of my shop and one zone of the house).
Always liked hot water over hot air. It is a steady warm heat and the radiators/ baseboard keep radiating long after the furnace has stopped running. With any hot air system it always seemed the minute the furnace quit, it started getting cold again. JMHO
The radiant heat in the floor is good once it gets cold and stays cold. Not so nice in the spring and fall when the temps outside fluctuate allot. The temp drops at night so the in floor heat kicks on. Then about mid morning the temps outside rises and the furnace shuts down but, the floor continues to radiate heat for many hours and you end up opening windows to be comfortable.
As to furnace age. It all depends on the shape of the furnace and the conditions it is setting in. Ie: damp basement with lots of moisture, could mean its rusty and on it's last legs. Good dry conditions, could last a very long time. Hope this helps
