Start a new section for boiler work - Plumbing Zone

OldSchool · 03-09-2010, 09:21 AM

I think it is time to start a new section for hydronic, steam and infloor heating. There seems to be enough plumbers here that practice this section of our industry.....so I think it would be a great addition

Sounds like a good idea to me.

Protech · 03-09-2010, 08:34 PM

Sounds great! That's my weakest area. I'd be in there all the time bothering the northerners with questions

We do quite a bit of boiler work, and some steam.

Shall the new forum be called Boilers?

Should it be classified as a sub Cat of Commercial Plumbing?

TPTB would like you input on it.

Don't care for it. Boilers are only part of it. Hydronics maybe? Hydronics & Steam? Boilers, Hot Water & Steam Heating?

No! I used to do some commercial hydronic, but these days it's 100% residential for me. For others it may be different.

Ok own section under

Professional Plumbers Forum
called
Hydronics & Steam

Does that sound better?

Protech · 03-10-2010, 11:27 AM

That sounds like a winner.
