PIPING. 



I have three houses 20x50 and would 

 like to know if I have piped them right 

 for Philadelphia climate. I have in each 

 house a lV4-inch pipe on the posts on each 

 side, near the gutter, and two other pipes 

 in the peak of the roof. The outside 

 houses each hare an extra pipe along the 

 wall near the ground. J. H. L. 



I do not understand the arrangement 

 of pipes in your houses but note that the 

 pipes indicated are practically all either 

 near or in the angle made by the sash 

 bars. In general this is not the best 

 position for heating pipes to get the 

 greatest eflSciency from them. Sixteen 

 pipes are indicated in the three houses, 

 two more in each of the sides than in 

 the center house. This is wise, but the 

 sixteen 1^-inch pipes are not sufficient 

 for severe weather. Each of the side 

 houses should have a 2-inch flow pipe in 

 the gable under the ridgepole, fifteen to 

 eighteen inches below it, and ten 1^-inch 

 ;returns. The middle house should have a 

 2-inch riser placed as above described and 

 eight 114-iDch returns. This is estimated 

 on a 60 degree basis for cold weather. 

 The plan calls for twenty-eight 1%-inch 

 return pipes and three 2-inch flows.

A COIL HEATER. 



I am thinking of building a coil heater 

 out of 2-inch or 1%-inch pipe. I intend 

 to use six runs eight feet long, so ar- 

 ranged that the heat passes as in a re- 

 turn flue boiler, there being three coils 

 in the fire chamber. How many feet of 

 3-inch pipe will this heat to 50 degrees 

 in zero weather! How many square feet 

 of grate will be needed and what size of 

 flue. G. O. K. 



The heater you figure constructed from 

 2-inch pipe will have eighty-nine square 

 feet of heating surface, which is capable 

 of carrying 712 square feet of radiation, 

 which is equal to 775 lineal feet of 3- 

 inch pipe. If you use the same number 

 of 1%-inch pipes of the same length 

 your heater will have correspondingly less 

 capacity. A grate with two and a half 

 square feet in it should be sufficient for 

 this amount of heating surface. A 6-inch 

 flue will answer if hard coal is used;

returns will be sufficient piping to main- 

 tain the specified temperature in the 

 house if the steam is maintained at the 

 pressure indicated. If the steam pres- 

 sure is liable to be lower, say five to ten 

 pounds, seventeen 1-inch pipes should 

 be used instead. L. C. C.
