Use it for patching when you cannot afford to cut a boiler out. 

 ELASTIC FIRE BRICK can be used for all fire brick purposes.

whether steam or hot water is used for 

 heating. 



To heat a range 70x80 feet to 60 de- 

 grees in zero weather, a boiler should 

 bo rated for at least 3,000 square feet 

 of hot water radiation, which will re- 

 quire a grate of about ten square feet. 



While ordinarily it is preferable to 

 run the flow pipes overhead — that is, 

 either on the plates or purlins, or at a 

 point two feet below the ridge — this is 

 (lone when 2i/^-inch or 3-inch pipes are 

 used. With 4-inch boiler tubes as flow 

 ])ipes it would be best to place them 

 just below the plates. 



The five houses would have six walls 

 and you might run a 4-inch flow pipe on 

 each wall near the plate. The returns 

 should consist of three 4-inch pipes on 

 each of the outside walls, or under the 

 outer benches. Upon each of the other 

 walls lihere should be four 4inch pipes. 

 If preferred, two of these pipes may be 

 under the benches on each side of the 

 posts. 



Instead of using the 4-inch pipes, it is 

 preferable to use one 3-inch flow upon 

 each wall and four 2-inch returns on the 

 outside walls, with seven returns on 

 each of the other walls. 



For heating the house with steam, 

 use one 1^/4 -inch flow on each wall, with 

 four li^-inch returns on each outside 

 wall and six returns on each of the 

 other walls. If solid beds are used, 

 some of the returns may be upon each 

 wall and the others either on the sides 

 of the beds in the walks, or on the pur- 

 lin posts.
