BOILER AND PIPING. 



I have a 25-horse power horizontal re- 

 liini Uibuhir boiler with 28 2-inch tubes. 

 Can it be used economically to heat these 

 live greenhouses with hot water? Four 

 houses cover 54x80 feet, no partition, 10 

 feet to ridge, south wall 3 feet of glass, 

 north wall double boarded. One house 

 is 20.\75 and 12 feet to ridge. 



How should these houses be piped to 

 maintain a temperature of 55 to CO de- 

 gi-ees? Outside temperature never 

 known to fall below zero. Top of boiler 

 even with walks in four houses. Houses 

 raised 2 feet above level of boiler shed. 

 Walk of upper house 6 feet above boiler. 

 Would like to use 2-inch flows and 11- 

 incli returns. J. H. 



In reply to J. H., as he does not 

 give the length of the tubes, the diam- 

 eter of the boiler nor the size of the 

 grates, we cannot advise as to its capac- 

 ity, but if it is, as he states, about 25- 

 horse power, it will be amply large 

 enough to heat the houses he describes. 

 Tor heating with wafer in 2-inch pipes 

 to maintain a temperature of 55 to 60 

 degrees in his latitude, at least one lin- 

 eal foot of pipe nnist be used to every one 

 and nine-tenths square feet of exposed 

 glass, measuring over sides, roof and 

 end. 



I notice that J. H. wishes to use 

 2-ineh and U-inch pipes. If he has to 

 buy new pipe, it would be better to use 

 all 2-inch andi avoid the greater friction 

 contained within the smaller pipes. If, 

 however, he has U-inch pipe on hand 

 which he desires to use, it would be nec- 

 essary to substitute 1} lineal feet of IJ 

 inch pipe for each foot of 2-inch pipe 

 for which he substitutes smaller pipe. 



Tn order to re.nch the farther house 

 20x75 feet, a .'i-inch main flow and re- 

 turn should extend from the Imilpr to 

 the eoils in this distant house. All pipes 

 should grade upward from the boiler to 

 the e.xtreme distant ends of the houses, 

 there Ix-ing provided with air vents. An 

 expansion tank should bo- connected to 

 the return main near the boiler and 

 placed at an elevation of at least 3 feet 

 above the highest point of the coils.
