DRAINING BOILERS. 



Is it preferable to let the old water 

 out of the boiler and pipes and substi- 

 tute fresh water, if the water was in 

 use for a year or more, or is the old 

 water all right? 0. H. T. 



If the water which is used were pure 

 and free from suspended earth or sedi- 

 ment, there would be no objection to al- 

 lowing it to remain in the system indefi- 

 nitely. Such water is diflScult to ob- 

 tain and all hydrant or well water either 

 carries suflRcient dirt or mineral salts, 

 such as lime or magnesia, to render it 

 desirable to drain the system once in six 

 months at least, and place therein some 

 good boiler cleaning preparation which 

 will remove scale and other deposits from 

 the interior of the pipes and the boiler. 

 Such deposits or incrustations thicken 

 the walls of the pipes, impede the flow 

 of water and lessen radiation, thus mak- 

 ing unnecessary inroads upon the coal 

 pile. If for no other reason, the system 

 should be cleaned as thoroughly as pos- 

 sible twice, or oftener, each year.
