    Can't you drill your own well, or is it not-allowed/not a suitable site for one?

    I was going to say that our Potterton Apollo that was new when W and her ex bought the house in about '84, and is still going strong. (I moved into it in 93) And our gas consumption for it is less than any boiler I ever had in my 1928 style...

    I am currently hoping that I can fix the electrical problem(s) with ours when I get home and that we don't end up having to get a new one. I do wonder if it ain't bust why you are looking to fix it? Or swap it out? Especially with the economic...
