Jordan's Patent Wrought Iron Water Heater. 



A NEW PRINCIPLE. 



ITIlThe boilers are constructed of horizontal pipes of the same inside diameter as those that form 

 the heating pipes, thereby producing a very rapid circulation of the water. 



LKNbTH SEVKN FEKT. DESCRIPTION. 



N6. 1 shows a side view of one-half section, with U steam 

 propeller. Also shows sections of chimney, ash-pit, and brick 

 arch around the boiler, with downward draft to chimney. 



No. 2 shows end view, with rear end closed with pipes ; ^,sh- 

 pit below and brick arch above. , 



No. 3 shows boiler before it is set in the brick, with a few. 

 pipes broken aw^ay, to show the steam gejieratpr. ... 



The improvements claimed are : a larger heating surface, 

 as compared to the amount of water in the boiler ; a more 

 rapid circulation of water by the use of st earn 'generator to' 

 move the water ; a larger fire-hole, so that soft coal can be 

 used and not obstruct the draft; and cheapness. 



Extracts from the Patent, No. 173,300, Dated 

 February 8th, 1876. 



By making the pipes throughout the whole length of the 

 boiler and heater of the same interior diameter th.efe :is. an. 

 even flow through the pipe at all parts, and no shoulders in 

 the pipe to cause any check to the flow. ' ■ ■ ' • 



It is obvious that the boiler-pipes being exactly the same 

 interior size as the radiator and connecting-pipes, a iiew and 

 quite valuable result is obtained, as the simultaneous move- 

 ment of the water is insured through the w'hole' series of 

 pipes at the same speed, thus preventing any _eddy and dead, 

 water. 



The U-formed steam water propeller, by descending into 

 the furnace and entering the water-pipe at an inclination, 

 causes a circulation in the w^ater-pipes almost immediately 

 the fire is lighted, and before the water has time to becom-e 

 heated in the water-pipes. The end bends of the w^ater-pipes, which close pnrtially the back' of the 

 fire-space, receive the full blast of the products of consumption. - , ^ 



TEUTHS TO BE CONSIDERED. 



If water moves rapidly into and out of the furnace it must carry otf the heat rapidly into the 

 room to be heated, thereby saving the fuel. The front is of iron and can be easily removed to 

 clean out dust, <6c. 



SETTIKG THE BOILER. 



Build foundation wall 12 inches wide, so the pipes will set about 1^ inches inside the walls, and 

 3 inches above the grate bars ; let the boiler rest on one fire brick at front and one at rear. Let 

 the rear bridge wall for the grate bars he heavy and raise above. the grate bars about 10 inches to 

 one foot, and" of fire brick. The Chimney should be started from the bottom of the furnace, and 

 be at least 25 feet high, and an opening at least one foot sqare. 



PRICE OF BOILERS (of wrought iron, with iron frost and grate bars.) 



Small boilers without grate bars oi iron Iront ... J2.'> to S50 each. I No. 4 to heat 1900 to 2000 feet of pipe $175.00 each 



No. 1 to heat 500 to 750 leet of pipe $75 00 " "5" " 2000 " 3000 " " '• 225 00 " 



" 2 " 750 "1000 " " '• 100.00 " "6 " " 3000 "5000 " " " 300.00 " 



" 3." 1000 " 1500 " " " 125.00 " | Valves for 4 inch pipe 10.00 " 



Large boilers made to order. Where no iron front or grate bars are wanted, 10 per lent. de- 

 ducted. 



Water-pipe and all kinds of fittings at present 30 per cent, off the card prices. 



Men furnished to put up the furnace and contracts taken to heat any building, and can be placed 

 where hot air furnace has been used. ■ ' ■ . ." '
