CARE OF HEATING PLANT WHEN 

 NOT IN USE. 



(A paper road before the Society of luwa 



Floiists, by G. H. Bancroft. Cedar 



Falls.) 



I have been assigned to speak as to 

 the care of steam boilers in summer. 

 Perhaps the best I can say would be to 

 tell how we care for our own. When 

 we quit firing, generally in May or first 

 of .Tune, the flues are thoroughly 

 blown, then scnaped and blown again. 

 The entire boiler is cleaned on the out- 

 side, back and front, and thoroughly 

 painted with asphalt paint or oil. All 

 the flues are swabbed out with oily 

 rags. All ashes are removed from fire 

 box and soot from rear of boilers. 

 The doors are taken out or opened and

all painted inside and out. The floor 

 and dampers are left wide opened so 

 that a thorough cii'culation of air is 

 maintained. The inside of the boilers 

 are washed out and manholes are 

 taken out both top and end. This also 

 gives a circulation of air inside of 

 boilers. Our boilers are placed on top 

 f>f ground in a large high stone shed 

 forty foot sipiare so that we have a 

 good ciiculation of air and there is no 

 dampness or sweating in the boilers. 

 Qui' automatic pump used for return- 

 ing condensed steam to the boilers is 

 dismantled and eveiything is left wide 

 open so that any dampness that may 

 accumulate drains off from the pump 

 and pipe. 



When we used hot water we kept 

 boilers full of water; and although on 

 top of ground in open sheds, they 

 sweat considerably, consequently flues 

 soon rusted out. With a hot water 

 boiler, as most of them are built, it is 

 almost an impossibility to prevent this 

 sweating, but we think it preferable 

 to keep them full of water during 

 summer. A damp boiler shed is a 

 yearly expense in repairs on boiler, 

 and in a few years your boilers are 

 rusted out so they are unsafe and the 

 cost of repairs will soon equal the cost 

 of a good airy boiler room and a 

 trap or pump for returning condensed 

 steam to boiler.
