The Florists^ Review 



June 14, 1917, 



the boiler, we would piefer to extend 

 the 2l^-inch flow and use it to feed the 

 coil. 



Perhaps the difficulty might be cor- 

 rected without the use of other piping 

 than that indicated in the sketch, by- 

 exchanging one of the 2-inch returns in 

 the east house for the flow pipe in the 

 west house. 



EXACT DIRECTIONS IMPOSSIBLE. 



Kindly inform us how much piping 

 will be required for a greenhouse 50x50, 

 with five and one-half feet of glass in 

 the sides and one foot of concrete wall 

 all around. We wish to heat the house 

 to 55 or 60 degrees when the outside 

 temperature is 25 degrees below zero. 

 Hot water is to be used. 



F. B.— Can. 



Without knowing something of the 

 arrangement of the house, we cannot be 

 positive regarding the best methods of 

 arranging the return coils. We would 

 advise the use of about 1,450 square feet 

 of radiation, and this may be secured by 

 using seven 2i/^-inch overhead flow pipes 

 and thirty-seven 2-inch returns in seven 

 coils, each supplied by one of the flows. 



One flow may be at each plate, another 

 three feet below the ridge, and two of 

 the others may be placed on each side 

 of the house, at equal distances between 

 the plates and the ridge. There should 

 be five pipes in each of the return coils 

 except those on the side walls, which 

 should have six return pipes each. The 

 coils should be in the walks if solid 

 beds are used, or underneath in the case 

 of raised benches.
