feet above the boiler. The flows can 

 have a fall of eight inches in 100 feet 

 and the returns the same. The houses 

 all have solid beds; so the pipes must 

 be on the walls and posts in the two 

 wide houses and on the walls in the 

 two narrower houses. Can I use the 

 tubes for returns in the wide houses f 

 I have 1,400 feet of 4-inch tubes, 600 

 feet of 3-inch tubes, 870 feet of 1%- 

 inch pipes, 800 feet of 1^4-inch pipes, 

 150 feet of 2-inch pipes and 300 feet of 

 3-inch pipes. Which will be better, 

 steam or hot water! . J. T. E. — Ga. 



We would prefer to use hot water for 

 heating the houses described, especially 

 as nearly three- fourths of the radiation 

 for which pipe is on hand would be 

 3-inch or larger. On the other hand, 

 we prefer not to use pipe smaller than 

 2-inch in houses more than 125 feet 

 in length for hot water heating. This 

 would mean that of the pipe on hand 

 2,500 feet will be too large, except as 

 flow pipes, if steam is used, while only 

 800 feet is too small for hot water, 

 and one-half of this will answer pro- 

 vided it cannot be exchanged for 2- 

 inch. 



There should be no difficulty in heat- 

 ing the houses described with the boiler 

 referr'^i to, either with steam or hot 

 wate.*, using a grate 3x5 feet. For 

 hot water heating use 600 square feet 

 of radiation in house No. 1, 800 feet in 

 house No. 2 and 950 feet each in 

 houses 3 and 4. For steam heating use 

 half these amounts of radiation. 



BEBXJILDINa AND BEPIPING. 



I am rebuilding a greenhouse and 

 should like to get some advice about 

 the heating of it. The house is 18x120, 

 twelVe feet high to the ridge and five 

 and one-half feet high to the eaves. 

 There are forty-two inches of glass 

 in the south wall and one gable is 

 glass, '''he sashbars are nine feet long 

 on one side and twelve feet on the 

 other side. Solid beds are used. 



The present piping is as follows: A 

 3%-inch main from the boiler to the 

 house; then two 2^-inch flows, one on 

 each purlin, extending to the farther 

 end of the house, where they are con- 

 nected with two runs of 1^4 -inch pipes 

 on the south wall, three runs of 114- 

 inch pipes in the south path, seven runs 

 of 1%-inch pipes on the north wall and 

 one 2-inch pipe in the north path. Should 

 fluch a system of piping heat the house 

 to 50 degrees in zero weather f I should 

 like to use the same pipe in the rebuilt 

 house.
