THE KROESCHELL BOILER 



was installed to heat over six million 

 (6,000,0U0) square feet of glass during 

 the past three years. 



Expressions from the men who know : 



Used steam was ad\it-ed to ehanRe to 

 your hot water boiler. Find it about half 

 the work with your boiler. We would 

 have no other. 



Steknitokk Bkos., Park Ridge. 111. 



Have handled many greenhouse boilers 

 of other makes, but Kroeschell beats 

 them all. I get perfect circulation in 30 

 minutes. Wm. Otto, Oshkosh, Wis. 



Former boiler, 16 horsepower steam; as 

 much difference as between day and 

 night. Your boiler does not need recom- 

 men lation. Will recommend itself wher- 

 ever uhed. 



Thko. F. Damerow, Grosse Pointe, Mich. 



Your boiler, in my estimation, is the best 

 in use today. We nave two of them. 



Potter & Sons, Waukegan, 111. 



When we rebuilt our plant, we were un- 

 decided whether to use your boiler or a 

 ca-t iron boiler. We are satisfied we 

 made no mistake in using Kroeschell. 

 Yeatman & Way, Kennett Square. Pa. 



Have fired greenhouse boilers since 

 1885. both steam and hot water. Yours 

 suits me the best. I have two of your 

 boilers. At one time I had two cast iron 

 boilers working togethtr and durinij; a 

 blizzard the rear section of one boiler 

 gave out and the front section of the 

 other sprung a crack a couple of months 

 later. No more cast iroi) boilers for me. 

 1 came very close to freezing out in both 

 instances. G. M.Thost, DeSoto, Mo. 



The Kroeschell Generator 



prevents boiling over, cures sluggish circu- 

 lation, saves fuel, smaller mains can be 

 used, water can be heated to 240" with- 

 out boiling, increases circulation, 3 to 5 

 times faster; no hot water system com- 

 plete without it. 



HAVE YOU EVER INVESTIGATED 



the one sure thing 



KBOESGHELL 



BOILERS 



See the siraplicitv of construction. Plate 

 material, NOT GVST IRON. Long fire travel, 

 tbin water ways. The best and the most heat- 

 ing surface in the world for the money. 



THE KROESCHELL BOILER will give you more 

 heat with the same piping required by 

 other boilers, and with less fuel.

THE KROESCHELL BOILER 



replaced 1346 cast iron boilers in 1905, 

 1906,1907, and many in 1908. 



Expressions from the men who know : 



We are very well pleased with your 

 boiler. I have had fourteen years' 

 experience in heating, six with gravity 

 sieam and eight with vacuum, but give 

 me the hot water system for all pur- 

 poses. Use me for references ar y tune. 

 E. LioHTHisER & Son, Xenla, O. 



Have used upright boilers, tubular 

 boilers, and cast iron boilers. Your 

 boiler heats up better and easier than 

 any boiler we have ever had anything to 

 do with. If we ever buy another boiler, it 

 will certainly be a Kropschell. 

 Poole & Purllant, Washington C. H.,0. 



I have fired boilers both here and in 

 Europe for the last forty years. The 

 Kroeschell is the best type of boiler I 

 have ever used. I have two cast iron 

 boilers, also a locomoti e builer coupled 

 with yours, but did not need to use the 

 cast iron boilers this winter. Your No 7 

 boiler is rated at 15,<i00 sq. ft. of glass 

 and carries 25.C0U sq. ft. of glass until the 

 outside temperature goes down to 10° of 

 frost. We have no trouble to keep 

 temperatures in our houses with easy 

 firing since we installed your boiler. The 

 main flows and returns are beating our 

 potting shed and packing room, which 

 are not included in the amount of square 

 feet of glass. From the boiler to the 

 farthest end of our violet houses and re- 

 turn is 800 ft. and circulates very quickly.

The Kroeschell Piping System 



is being installed by many progressive 

 florists. 1 Hi , \]4. or 2-in threaded pipe, 

 or 4-in tubing is used. Boiler can be set 

 on level with greenhouse walks. You do 

 not need deep boiler pits. 



was greater and better than ever before. 

 Immense quantities of stock were shipped
