nearly 3,000 square feet of radiation will 

 be required. Even in the .most severe 

 weather it should be possible to keep the 

 temperature at 50 degrees with one of 

 the two boilers, thus leaving one boiler 

 in reserve. However, it may be more 

 economical of fuel to use both boilers 

 in zero weather. 



I should suggest running the flow and 

 return connections with the boiler into 

 6-inch flow and return manifolds, with 

 valves so that either boiler can be cut 

 out if necessary. A 4-inch main flow 

 and a main return of the same size 

 should be run to the old house. The

Fisher Steam Trap Keeps Steam Dry 



^ The operation of a steam plant is a constant battle against 



H Nature. You make steam of water. Nature seeks to change 



= it back. Nature always succeeds. All mere man can do is 



^ retard Nature's process of re-conversion. As the steam leaves 



^ the boiler it is dry. It skids along through the mains and 



^ radiators and immediately their lower temperature causes it to 



B commence shedding drops of water. 



M These drops drain to the nearest low spot and are soon joined 



^ by others. They form a pool to rob steam of its energy. If 



E they aren't ousted quick, any steam passing that point loses 



B its pep — has its ardor cooled. 



M It's "all wet" — in slang and reality. 



fc Fisher Steam Trap, Type 33, aids you in the fight to preserve 



■ your steam. Our book "THE FISHER STEAM TRAP" tells 



^ why. Let us send it to you.
