The Horists' Review 



Septbubcb 5, 1912. 



Where There Is Coideisation 



— there is need for a Morehead Steam Trap. Condensation in 

 steam lines is akin to matter out of place — means wasted energy. 

 If your lines are sluggish — if your houses are not of uniform 

 temperature, write us. We guarantee to drain your lines per- 

 fectly — return the pure, hot condensation to your boiler without 

 pump or injector or make no charge for the trial. Obey that 

 impulse — write now.

hoped to heat a cottage, attached to 

 the east end of the greenhouse, with 

 the same plant, but do not know that 

 it would be feasible, as the cottage is a 

 rambling structure, stretching some 

 fifty-three feet from library to wood- 

 shed. My location is northeastern 

 Kansas. S, E. E. 



To heat the greenhouse, run a 2%- 

 inch flow pipe overhead to the end 

 farthest from the heater and carry 

 back five 2-inch returns. One of these 

 could be on the south wall and the 

 others in the walks or under the 

 benches. If the heater can be placed 

 in the cellar, so that it will be below 

 the floor of the cottage, there should be 

 no difficulty about heating both the 

 cottage and the greenhouse. 



The greenhouse will require a heater 

 rated for 250 feet of radiatipn. for 

 the cottage use one foot of radiation 

 for each square foot in the windows, 

 plus one foot for each ten feet of ex- 

 posed wall and plus one foot for each 

 100 cubic feet of space. 



ONE HOUSE AKD A LEAN-TO. 



Kindly let me know how to pipe my 

 house and lean-to in order to heat them 

 satisfactorily in this Long Island cli- 

 mate. The house is five feet six inches 

 high to the eaves and eleven feet nine 

 inches to the ridge. It runs east and 

 west. The north wall contains two feet 

 of glass; the rest of the wall is con- 

 crete and seven inches thick. The 

 house has a pitch of three feet toward 

 the boiler pit and is twenty feet one 

 inch wide. There is also a lean-to at 

 the south side of the house. The lean-to 

 is the same length as the house and is 

 seven feet nine inches wide. There is 

 no partition between the house and the 

 lean-to. The south wall of the lean-to 

 is six feet high to the eaves. The 

 upper half of this wall consists of glass 

 ventilators; the lower half is concrete 

 and is below the level of the outside 

 ground. 



The boiler pit is four feet six inches 

 below the floor level of the house. I 

 have a Henderson Thermo No. 619 

 boiler and plenty of 2-inch pipe. Kindly 

 let me know whether this boiler is large 

 enough to heat the house to 60 degrees 

 in zero weather. J. T. L.

they drain all the condensation from all the steam coils and 

 automatically return it directly to the boiler hot. Not a 

 drop is wasted. None of the heat is lost.
