The Florists' Review 



NOVEUBEB 26, 1914. 



an increase of radiation amounting to 

 about fifty per cent, bringing it up to 

 three flows and at least twelve 2-inch 

 returns. I know, of course, that a con- 

 siderable reduction may be made for a 

 greenhouse in your locality, but, though 

 your proposed radiation would un- 

 doubtedly answer in ordinary winter 

 weather, I think it would be safer to 

 attach a generator for use in extremely 

 cold weather. There should then be no 

 difficulty in maintaining a temperature 

 of 60 degrees, unless the mercury out- 

 side drops to 10 degrees above zero. 



PIPING A PEOPAQATINO HOUSE. 



Our propagating house is made of 

 vhotbed sashes and is 10x60 feet. We 

 shall heat it by steam and we have 

 placed in it one 1^4 -inch feed pipe, 

 which will supply eight 1-inch pipes, 

 four on each side. The sides of the 

 house are three feet high and are cov- 

 ered with boards, with rubber roofing 

 paper on the outside. The east end 

 has a glass front; the west end is 

 attached to the boiler house. Do you 

 think the house has sufficient piping to 

 keep it at a temperature of 60 degrees 

 in zero weather? The location is north- 

 ern Ohio. Will a 1%-inch pipe supply 

 enough steam for eight flow pipes! 



H. C. & S. 



As I understand the letter, there is 

 one 114-inch flow pipe running to the 

 farther end of the house and eight 

 1-inch return pipes. This should be 

 ample for a propagating house where 60 

 degrees is desired, and should furnish 

 all the bottom heat needed. This state- 

 ment is made with the understanding 

 that the roof is fairly tight. Even with 

 low pressure, I would expect good re- 

 sults if there were no more than six 

 returns, although eight will be better. 



The 114 -inch flow pipe would be fully 

 large enough for six returns. Although 

 it is generally preferable to use a 1^- 

 inch flow for eight returns, when there 

 is a long overhead flow pipe and low 

 pressure is used, in this case excess of 

 radiation makes it unnecessary to put 

 in a larger flow pipe.
