WITH COIL BOILER. 



I have a greenhouse for bedding 

 plants, 18x60, ten and one-half feet to 

 the ridge, side walls four feet glass, 

 gables glass above three feet. The house 

 is exposed and the temperature some- 

 times goes down to 40 degrees below 

 zero. I want to make a coil boiler of 

 1-inch pipe, as I have all the fittings 

 and grates 24x36 inches. Kindly tell me 

 how much pipe to use in the boiler, also 

 how to pipe the greenhouse. 



J. C. T. 



Your house 18x60 should be provided 

 with 500 feet of radiation. To supply 

 this with 2-inch pipe will require four- 

 teen runs of pipe the length of the 

 house. I do not think it would be wise 

 to attempt to construct a water heater 

 with 1-inch pipe; 1^4 -inch or l^^rinch is 

 small enough for this purpose. If 1-inch 

 is to be tried, 200 lineal feet of it should 

 be used in making the boiler to supply 

 heat for the above house. L. C. C. 



UPRIGHT BOILER. 



I have an upright steam boiler sup- 

 posed to be of twenty horse-power. It 

 is eight feet high, thirty-six inches in 

 diameter and has eighty-five submerged 

 2-inch flues. I have two houses 22x100, 

 sides five feet, ridge eleven and a half 

 feet. Will the boiler heat these two 

 touses where the outdoor temperature 

 sometimes falls to zero? How low in 

 the ground should this boiler be set to 

 give satisfaction? If I am compelled to 

 set the boiler nearly on the ground level 

 will a trap return the water to the 

 boiler? "Would the boiler heat any more 

 space than the above? E. P. H. 



The boiler in question, if worked with 

 five pounds steam pressure, should have 

 capacity to heat three greenhouses of the 

 dimensions noted. Steam-traps are used 

 only when other means fail. Use the 

 gravity system if possible. To do this 

 the water line of the boiler should be 

 at least two feet below the lowest point 

 in the radiating pipes in the greenhouses. 

 If the main flow pipes are carried under 

 the ridge of the houses the water line 

 can be worked higher than when there 

 is less dilBference between the level of the 

 supply and returns. L. C. C.
