    We heat homes by heating water and putting the hot water through pipes into wall mounted iron tanks so that the water cools down again…

      Not everyone uses radiators. My system is a forced air furnace.

      Not only water as per the original comment. You need heat to smelt ore and do any number of industrial things to progress society.
