Well, not to worry.

I've heard it said that as we age, it's OK to constantly forget
where you left your car keys.
It's when you forget what your car keys are for,,,THAT"S when you have
a problem. <g>

Boiler?..... what kind of system hot water,radiant steam, hot water
with cast iron radiators?? Most of the time there is more to consider
than just the heat loss.

Unless you own a skysraper or an arena I don't think you will need to
convert BTU's to horse power. You probbably only need 2-6 horsepower. I
don't think cleaver brooks makes one that small(ha ha)

Unless you have horses, then we need to know the count per
head...........count the feet and divide by 4
