required to maintain a temperature of 

 50 degrees in zero weather. 



I would run two 3-inch pipes to the 

 house and carry one of them as a flow 

 pipe on the south wall. With the other 

 3-inch pipe, supply two 2% -inch flows, 

 one to be carried on the north wall and 

 the other about three feet under the 

 ridge, to tiie west end of the house. On 

 the south wall place a coil of five 2- 

 inch returns, which should be carried 

 across the east end and back to where 

 the flow pipes enter the house, unless 

 there is a door in the end of the house, 

 in which case the coil would stop at 

 the door and a 3-inch pipe would con- 

 nect it with the boiler. On the north 

 wall place a coil of four 2-inch returns 

 and supply the same number of returns 

 from the middle flow pipe. The flow 

 pipes should run downhill, at least after 

 they enter the greenhouse. 



PIPING TWO 15-FOOT HOUSES. 



Please give me suggestions for the 

 piping of the following houses for hot 

 water heat: House No. 1 is 15x50 and 

 ,ten feet high to the ridge, with two 

 feet of concrete and thtea. feet of glass 

 in the side wallje' Hbuse Nd. 2 is 15x50 

 and nine feet to.'the Hdge, with 3-foot 

 concrete side walls anc^.Qo side glass. 

 I. wish to place, ttie retun^ pipes Tinder 

 the bench«S,T Sow fan.below^ the re- 

 turns must the "bottom of the boiler be? 

 I want a temperature of about 60 de- 

 grees. C. E.— Ohio. 



• While it is preferable to have the 

 -top of the boiler below the level of the 

 ireturns, this is not absolutely neces- 

 sary, especially if the flows are on the 

 wall plates. 



To heat house No. 1 to 60 degrees, I 

 would run a 2%-inch flow pipe on each 

 of the plates and connect each of then) 

 with a coil of five 2-inch returns. Give 

 the fiows as well as the returns a slight 

 fall. In house No, 2, which is of the 

 same size as No. 1, but has no glass in 

 the side walls, the use of two 2%-inch 

 flow pipes and twd coils containing 

 th^ee 2-inch pipes, . as returns, should 

 give the desjred - temperature.
