Warming up for the winter chill
November 03, 2013 In 2000 we moved into an apartment in Tokyo run by the semi-public housing corporation UR. It was new and had a natural-gas heating system. Unlike other gas systems we’d used in the past, however, this one heated water that was then circulated to outlets in different rooms in the apartment. Direct gas ignition devices we’d bought for previous apartments were useless in our new on...
