Hi Everyone,
I'm probably the least handy person out there and I cannot seem to find an answer when I google this.
I just bought a house. It's a great little house with a new'ish gas boiler (5-10 years old). There are radiators throughout the main floor that the boiler heats to provide heat to the house. It works great! In fact, I think I am going to like boiler heat much more than forced air.
However, when a previous owner finished the basement and dining room, electric baseboard heat was installed. The kind that has the dial on the wall for the room that the baseboard is in. Throughout the basement and the dining room, there are 4 of these electric baseboards. I know how expensive these can get because this is what I dealt with in college. It's awful.
My question: Is it possible to hook these existing electric baseboards up to my boiler? If so, how? If not, what can I do to eliminate this electric baseboard heat?
