keep the house at 60 degrees with zero 

 weather outside. "What is the matter? 



I am building an addition 18x32 feet, 

 running north and south, with 4-foot 

 sides, 9 1^ -foot ridge. I have some 1^4 - 

 inch pipe, and some 3-inch and 3% -inch 

 boiler tubes. Can I use these in the new 

 house? How shall I arrange the piping? 

 I want 60 degrees with zero outsiae. 

 Where should the highest point in the 

 supply pipe be, and how deep should the 

 boiler be set? A. T. B. 



The piping in your house is somewhat 

 deficient. There should be fifteen IV^- 

 inch returns instead of twelve. For hot 

 water under pressure I prefer the up-hill 

 system for the main flow instead of the 

 down-hill arrangement as you have, i. e., 

 the highest point at the most distant 

 point from the boiler, rather than di- 

 rectly over it. The expansion tank should 

 be large and placed as high above the 

 level of the pipes in the system as pos- 

 sible; ten to fifteen feet is little enough. 

 Connect the expansion tank with the 

 boiler by means of a 1-inch or ^-inch 

 pipe to the main return close to the 

 toiler. The boiler should be ample to 

 heat both the houses. 



The new house can be piped as above 

 suggested with the following: A 2-inch 

 flow, with the highest point at the far- 

 theafr end, placed under the ridge of the 

 house; and at the far end divide it to 

 return by two or three coils containing 

 in all eighteen l^^-inch pipes, the length 

 ■of the house ; or nine 3-inch pipes ar- 

 ranged in three coils, containing one 

 flow and two returns under each of the 

 three benches, will do the work.

This is a sample of letters we receive from our customers. "Bums Boiler Co., Green Bay, Wis. 

 Dear Sirs: Replying to your letter of the 2nd inst., regarding your Eclipse Boiler I installed in my (green- 

 houses two years ago, will say that the boiler is givi^ g me best of satisfaction. At the same time 1 

 installed your boiler, I built an addition to my greenhouses with about 3UUU sq. ft. of glass, and the first 

 winter I saved t75.Uu in fuel. This is a very large saving when you consider that I nrated 3000 sq. ft. 

 additional glass and at the same time saved t76 00 on fuel.and if I were to install another boiler, I certainly 

 would have no other than your Eclipse." Yours truly, LOUIS OTTO, Neenah, Wis., Aug. 11, 1806.

and west. The boiler is at the north- 

 east corner of the block. Main flows of 

 4-inch pipe supply the piping in the 

 four old houses, one flow to the two east- 

 and-west houses, and one to the two 

 north-and-south houses. Which line would 

 you tap to heat the new house? I want 

 to use 2-inch pipe in it. W. P. K. 



If you will carry an independent flow 

 from the boiler to the new house, which 

 I think the best plan, you can take it 

 from the opening that seems most con- 

 venient. It is likely that by dividing 

 the flow pipe close to the boiler each
