STEAM TRAPS. 



Can a steam trap be used efficiently 

 in returning condensed steam to the 

 boiler when the boiler is run under 

 a pressure of five to ten pounds? My 

 two bouses are only about two feet 

 higher than the boiler-house foundation. 

 Will a trap be practicable in a small 

 place of 8,000 feet of glass? G. H. S. 



Yes, the steam trap can be made to 

 do the work desired on a low pressure 

 system. If a minimum pressure of six 

 pounds is maintained there will be no 

 difficulty in securing good service.

PIPING TWO HOUSES. 



Kindly advise me how to pipe two 

 bouses, 15x100, in order to maintain a 

 temperature of about 60 degrees in zero 

 weather. I wish to use 2-inch pipe. My 

 houses extend east and west and are six 

 feet high on the north side and four 

 feet high on the south side. New Jersey 

 climate. C. J. R. 



Each of the houses 15x100 feet should 

 contain eleven runs of 2-inch pipe. This 

 can be arranged in two coils, one of 

 six pipes on the north side and one 

 with five pipes on the south side. The 

 large coil should consist of a 2-inch 

 flow-pipe from the boiler to the far end 

 of the house, where the flow should enter 

 a manifold, carrying five 2-inch returns. 

 The other coil should consist of one 

 2-inch flow arranged the same as the 

 above^ and four 2-inch returns. The 

 boiler to supply heat for these houses 

 should be rated to carry at least 2,000

A QUESTION OF PIPING. 



Please state the number of flows and 

 returns of 2-inch pipe needed to heat 

 two houses to 50 degrees, where the 

 temperature occasionally falls to 15 de- 

 grees below zero. One house is 16x60, 

 walls four feet high, ridge nine feet, 

 east end protected. The second house 

 is 22x40, connected to the first house on 

 the south, north well protected. T. B.
