A new, state of the art boiler and hot water heater have been installed in the big house replacing existing equipment that was over 25 years old at a cost of $12,000.
The new systems are more efficient and produce more heat and hot water for the brothers. When choosing a heating system the Alumni Board looked to the future, choosing equipment that will allow the house to be split in to multiple heating zones for thermal and energy efficiency.
The next step for the heating system is to scope out a future project that will perform the large heating infrastructure upgrades which will not only distribute heat better overall but also bring heat to rooms that have never had it. The current estimate for these upgrades is around $30,000.
