PLAN FOR HEATING. 



I have a house, even span, east and 

 west, 24x100 feet, twelve feet six inches 

 to the ridge, side walls five feet high, 

 containing twenty inches of glass. On 

 the north side is a lean-to from the 

 eaves, of six-foot sash. The house, con- 

 taining three five-foot center benches, is 

 to be used for carnations and the lean- 

 to for violets. Using hot water, how 

 many lines of IH-inch pipes will be re- 

 quired, the house being tight but some- 

 what exposed and subject to the weather 

 of western New York? How large a 

 flow is needed and what is the best ar- 

 rangement of the system? The boiler 

 will be below the lowest point in the 

 piping. Using steam what piping would 

 be required? "What is meant by hot 

 water under pressure? L. C. S. 



The house 24x100 will require twenty- 

 one runs of 1^4 -inch pipe arranged along 

 the side walls and under the benches, or 

 entirely under the benches, to heat it 

 to 60 degrees during severe weather with 

 hot water at 180 degrees. It should have 

 a 3^/^ -inch flow pipe to supply these 

 pipes. A good system would be to run 

 a 3 v.! -inch riser under the ridge with a 

 rise toward the far end of the house and 

 there divide into 2-inch branches to sup- 

 ply a coil under each of the three 

 benches, i. e.. three coils of seven pipes 

 each. The coils should have a fall from 

 the far end of the house towards the 

 boiler of at least twelve inches in the 

 100 feet. To heat this house with steam 

 the riser can be reduced to 2% -inch 

 and the twenty-one pipes replaced by 

 sixteen of the same size. The riser 

 should fall in the opposite direction for 

 steam, however. The lean-to house, if 

 provided with a 2-inch riser and four 

 1^-inch returns, should provide 50 de- 

 grees during severe weather with hot 

 water. If steam is used a 2-inch riser 

 and three 1%-inch pipes should do the 

 work. 



Hot water under pressure is the system 

 of using small malleable pipes, such as 

 above mentioned, and using an expansion 

 tank of good size located twelve to 

 twenty feet above the returns in the 

 houses. In the above described hot 

 water system a 1-inch pipe should con- 

 nect with the main return near the 

 boiler and rise as nearly vertical as 

 possible to a height of fifteen feet or 

 more. If necessary, build a cupola on 

 the boiler-house to accommodate the ex- 

 pansion tank and use a tank with fifty 

 gallons capacity. L. C. C.
