tain a temperature of 48 to 52 degrees 

 at night. We are located about 150 

 miles southwest of Chicago. We also 

 ■wish to heat two rooms in our resi- 

 dence with the same boiler; the rooms 

 are each 14x15. The boiler room will 

 be connected to the house. How large 

 a boiler will be required? Please give 

 your idea as to the piping of the 

 greenhouse. We can sink the boiler to 

 any depth that is necessary. 



T. E. G. 



It makes little difference whether 

 the house runs east and west or north 

 and south, and if it would be any more 

 sheltered if it funs east and west I 

 would certainly locate it that way. A 

 steam heating system is cheaper in 

 first cost, but it requires more atten- 

 tion than a hot water system and, 

 especially for small houses, will be 

 found less economical. In most cases 

 hot water is used for less than 1,000 

 square feet of radiation. The 2-inch 

 pipe could be used for a part of the 

 returns in a hot water plant, but while 

 they might be used in a steam heating 

 plant I would prefer 1^4 -inch pipe for 

 the coils. 



The greenhouse will require about 

 900 square feet of hot water radiation, 

 and the two rooms in the dwelling will 

 take about 100 square feet more, 

 though the exact amount will depend 

 upon the area of window surface and 

 exposed wall, as well as the tempera- 

 ture desired. It is always advisable to 

 have considerable surplus capacity in 

 a boiler and I would select one with a 

 rating of 1,250 to 1,400 square feet of 

 hot water radiation. To heat the green- 

 house with hot water, use three 2^^- 

 inch flow pipes and nine 2-inch re- 

 turns. Locate one flow on each plate 

 and the other about three feet below 

 the ridge. Connect these pipes with 

 the returns arranged in three coils of 

 three pipes each. 



If steam is used, the boiler should 

 have a rating of 750 square feet. To 

 use the 2-inch pipes with steam, put 

 in one 2-inch flow pipe on each plate, 

 with two 2-inch and four l^^-inch re- 

 turns. However, I would prefer to 

 use one 214-inch flow under the ridge 

 and nine 1^-inch returns. It will be 

 well to have the top of the boiler be- 

 low the level of the returns, for hot 

 water, and for steam it will be well 

 to have it two or three feet lower.
