You'd be better off not to. A steam system can't be zoned, so will waste tremendous amounts of fuel at a time when it is becoming very expensive.
Insulate the house completely, so you aren't supporting an antique white elephant. Also, install a new zoned hot water system. These will cut the cost of heating to 1/3rd of the old uninsulated house with steam for the next lifetime.

Yes, you really have to find out the MAKE and MODEL to get good answers. There IS more than one machine made. |
