As a layman and owner of a 100 year old house with a steam heating system, this book is a bible for me. It makes my steam heat SYSTEM easier to understand and diagnose.
Before reading this book I thought a steam system was obsolete. My objective was to try to get the system to limp along until I could replace it. As I look at the system now I am amazed at the engineering and workmanship that went into creating a simple effecient heating system. Now my goal is to resurect and utilize the existing system. I am confident that it will be functional for years to come.
Dan is an amazing writer and explains things in terms that are easily understood. If you have a steam heating system or work with them I highly recommend the this book be part of your library.

If you work in an area within 90 miles of a steam system, BUY THIS BOOK. I have found almost every type of steam system in this book> Great initial reading, great desk reference. YOU MUST OWN THIS BOOK!

This book really covers it all and is written so anybody can follow what Dan is saying. Homeowners can learn about their system and professionals can identify odd things found in systems all over. Great to have!
