You might check with Bill Flint at Historic Deerfield. I recall learning
in 1970 that they had electric radiant in some ceilings there. (perhaps
it was in the apartment above the silversmith's shop, and elsewhere) I
don't know if it is still performing there, or has failed, or what--but
Bill may know.
