The Buderus oil boiler stayed but the loops and trim around it didn't. I cleaned up the copper manifold with new zone valves, rebuilt the expansion tank tie-in, and ran fresh PEX along the baseboards in the rooms I'd opened up. Two new electric water heaters on a copper manifold below the joists with PEX feeds out. New baseboard covers everywhere.
