For the older systems, in particular, that means cleaning and<br \/>\nmaking any necessary repairs to the boilers so they are ready to be fired up. The newer systems take<br \/>\nless preparation but still must be checked so any necessary repairs can be made.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some additional facts:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Weisser Park Elementary School<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Age of building: 45 years<\/li>\n<li>Age of boiler: 45 years<\/li>\n<li>Type of system: Hot water<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Fort Wayne Community Schools<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Number of school buildings: 53<\/li>\n<li>Number of heating systems past life expectancy: 14<\/li>\n<li>Number of heating systems replaced in the last five years: 3 full system replacements; 73 boilers\u00c2\u00a0installed<\/li>\n<li>Number of heating systems to be replaced in the next year: 0 full replacement; boiler only\u00c2\u00a0&#8211; Haley, Harris, Price and Weisser Park<\/li>\n<li>Estimated cost to replace Weisser Park system: $1,400,000 (2008 construction cost)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h3>Related Images:<\/h3><div class=\"ngg-related-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/fwcs\/wendy_with_kids_2007.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"Fort Wayne Community Schools Superintendent Dr. Wendy Robinson.
