Anyone have any brands or model numbers of forced air heaters, electric radiators tied to the wall, etc.?

We're also debating keeping the radiator system instead of installing HVAC, and we're debating keeping the hot water heater as the current one looks to be in good shape, but everything else will be new.

You can see if the water lines to radiators and or water feed lines or a toilet cracked.

If its steam heat, each radiator would have some sort of control.Didn't realize this was an empty building.

Before I purchased the property, I investigated the costs of replacing the heating systems, either with electric baseboard ($3-6,000) or a gas boiler with radiators. ($6-10,000) (FYI, electric baseboard is very expensive to use -- high bills.)

No Garage, Unfinished attic No Central Heat/ No A/C: (1FL has space heaters, 2nd FL has radiators) Smaller bedrooms w/ no closets!

Hello BP,I am curious if anyone can guide me through the process of replacing radiators with forced air and the approximate cost in a 4 flat with 4600 square feet.The subject was originally built in 1921 and is located on the South side of Chicago.

I don't mind shared systems if it is radiator based, because it is very efficient and easier to fine tune radiators, plus no shared air vents.

The pipes going to the radiators might be readily accessible, or they might all be between walls or floors and ceilings.

Rewiring a house or adding central air to a house with radiators is a substantial job.
