    Thats right you smelly hippies, I drove my knock-around Tacoma from Virginia Beach to Southern California.
    The trip took 3 days, with my two cats and amphetamines

    I am 21 years old, and probably don't know sh1t but..

    Here is your chance... maybe you're thinking of kicking rocks to the west yourself.. or maybe you need a solid new hobby, or maybe you're even wondering how to get yourself a better nights rest..Ask me anything.

    I've been here for two weeks.
    The surf has been consistently 2-5 feet. and aside from two days, glassy as can be until 10AM
    Water was trunks and a top for me the first week. In a 3/2 kind of hot right now.

    what is the cost benefit to adjust your boiler temperature to reflect actual outside temps?
    what are the possible issues that can result if you do? Will there be a benefit to occupant comfort? what are they and can they also lead to any financial benefits?

    Thank you, no surf is making me a little snarky.
    to answer the boiler question. it is beneficial to adjust your boiler temps. the issue is if your water returns to cold it can condense which is no good for an older boiler and possibly the flue pipe. occupants should feel more constant comfort than cold and hot snaps which could lead to temp turn downs at the t stat.

    home heating is a freaking science dude
    which you won't need to worry about in southern cali

    I didn't take thermodynamics but I did take a class in sustainable building construction!

    I also stayed at a holiday inn last night.
