Thanks for posting all this information.  Up in NH, we are replacing old oil burning steam boiler with yet to be decided system.  Have 2 story expanded brick cape with poor insulation.  Put in heat pump system upstairs with AC so good there.  Downstairs, wife wants radiant heat but in the ceiling panels if possible, hot water radiant not electric wire, with likely a propane boiler for the hot water.  If we have to, we can do in-floor radiant heat.  She doesn't want to have to replace the floors is why ceiling radiant is her preference, but no plumbers near us have ever done radiant that way.

Were it up to me, I'd just replace the old steam boiler with a new steam boiler, keep and clean out the existing steam radiators or replace them with new ones, and be done with it.

Unfortunately, right now we are also digging a new well, old one is kaput.  Insurance is kicking in some money but we will have to see how deep they dig to get final bill.
