If the pipes run uphill, there should

 i» case the expansion tanks in the old

PIPING HIS FIRST HOUSE. 



I am ]ilaiining to build a small house, 

 10x24, with 4-foot sides. I have had 

 no oxperience in hot wator heating. 

 How much pipe will be required to heat 

 this house to 5") degrees in zero weather? 

 Where shall I place the pi]ics and the 

 expansion tank'? There will be no glass 

 in the side walls. The house will run 

 east and west and will be located in a 

 slieltcred spot, protected from west and 

 north winds. Would you advise putting 

 the boiler in a pit or on a level with the 

 floor? S. E. C— Mass. 



For heating the house described, we 

 would use one 2-inch flow pipe upon each 

 ]ilate and connect each flow with three
