Fisher Steam Traps for Even Heat 



A Zero Weather Tip to Florists 



This is the season of unsettled weather. One day is 

 cx)mparatively warm — the next bitterly cold. Mercury 

 drops without warning. 



Can you keep a steady current of husky, live steam 

 dancing along to your outlying benches? Or is there 

 condensate waiting to slow it down — to rob the steam 

 of its energy — leaving your end run of pipes lukewarm? 



Fisher 



Trap 



TYPE 33 



keeps the pip)e line 

 free of water at all 

 times. Condensation 

 is quickly sidetracked 

 — steam has the right 

 of way. °W>v 



Even heat and accurate regulation are easily maintained. 

 The last house is as warm as the first. 



Ejcpjerience has proved the Fisher to be the ideal trap 

 for greenhouse use. 



The valve is closed tight or wide op)en. There can be 

 no wire drawing or leakage, as with a continuous 

 discharge tyfje.

It is better to run the flow pipes down-
