WHAT TIE USERS SAY 



ABOUT 



KROESCHELL BOILERS 



Kroeschell Boiler- Half the Coal 

 and Half the Work 



Your No. 13 Boiler ts carrying 25,000 sq. 

 ft. of glass, and I can keep It at 60° In the 

 coldest weather without any trouble. I have 

 three sectional cast Iron boilers also, heat- 

 ing a range of 25,000 sq. ft. oft glass, but 

 the No. 13 Kroeschell Boiler only takes half 

 the coal and half the work to get the same 



results.

Kroeschell Versus Cast Iron 



The No. 7 Boiler I bought from yon Is 

 heating 14,000 sq. ft. of glass; I think It can 

 take care of 16,000 ft. I do not have any 

 trouble to keep up temperature of 50° In 

 the coldest weather. I Are only once after 

 12 o'clock midnight The boiler has given 

 perfect satisfaction. I have four cast Iron 

 boilers — like the Kroeschell best of all. If 

 anyone wishes to inquire about your boiler, 

 let them write me, for I think your boilers 

 are good ones.

Cast Iron Boilers Waste Fuel 



I bought a No. 3 boiler In 1901. We had 

 a corrugated cast Iron fire box boiler and 

 sectional cast Iron boiler before we bought 

 yours in 1901. The cost of heating with this 

 boiler is one-half less than it was with my 

 cast iron boilers. Your No. 8 boiler, which 

 we bought recently of you. Is not being run 

 to its full capacity.

Kroeschell Better than Cast Iron 



The Kroeschell Boiler is indeed a dandy 

 and beats any cast iron boiler we have had 

 any experience with. Respectfully, 



A. BECKBINK. Jamestown, N. Y. 



The Kroeschell Is a Coal Saver 



In regard to the Kroeschell Boiler will 

 say that we are well satisfied, as it heats 

 quickly and also is a coal saver.

Mention The Review when vnn write. 



Now, we should like to have some in- 

 formation as to ventilation. The old 

 room is ventilated by one vent, 6 x 12 

 inches, on each end; these vents are 

 boxed down to the floor, but they do 

 not seem to answer the purpose. We 

 should like to know whether a vent 

 in the center of the top or roof would 

 work better. We can get along with 

 the concrete work, but we should 

 greatly appreciate any information con- 

 cerning the plans. L. & F. 



It will certainly be best if the ven- 

 tilators are placed in the roof, one in 

 the middle of each room, but com- 

 bined with this there should be some 

 provision for the admission of air from 

 the outside. If built lengthwise into 

 the hill, two tiles of the size of the 

 ventilators could enter the workroom 

 and one tile could be carried into the 

 storeroom. 



FOR VIOLETS AITD LETTUCE. 



I am planning to build a house, 12x 

 110 feet, for violets and lettuce. There 

 will be two feet of glass in the west 

 wall, with cement below the glass, and 

 there will be a glass gable in the south 

 end. The house will be connected with 

 another house at the north and east. 

 The east wall will be about seven feet 

 high and the west one five feet high; 

 the height to the ridge will be from 

 ten to twelve feet. Please tell me how 

 much piping will be required to heat

A Steady 

 Pressure 



will always 

 be main- 

 tained in 

 your steam pipes, no matter 

 now the pressure at the boiler 

 fluctuates, if you equip your 

 main lines with these valves. 

 Carry 40 or 60 pounds pressure 

 on the boiler, set the 



Hughson 

 Regulating Valve 



to carry 6 or 10 pounds on the 

 line and you will always have a 

 reserve in case of a sudden drop 

 in temperature. This valve 

 saves both fuel and worry. Ask 

 for catalogue and particmarg.
