I'm new to this - never posted a message to a group before - but I am hoping for some helpful advice. I have a 23 unit apartment building in Michigan that currently has a central steam boiler w/radiators heat system. It's expensive, inefficient, and since I pay for it tenants don't have much incentive to keep heating costs down. Basically, I would like to replace this system with individual units in each apt. which the tenant would pay for. Each apartment currently has 60 amp electrical service and cooking gas service (3/4" line, I believe) that the tenant is billed directly for from the utility company. The city inspectors want a heat source in each room of the apartment, I believe, and the building is entirely concrete & brick construction (the only wood in the building are the doors - it is used, rightfully so, as a bomb shelter for the area). -- Any suggestions??? Thanks
