workroom, 10x20, in the corner thus 

 formed. My boiler, rated for 10,500 

 square feet of glass, is in the basement 

 of the residence, which joins the work- 

 room on the west. I wish to extend 

 the larger house fifty feet next summer. 

 How many 3-inch or 4-inch flows and 

 2-inch returns will be needed, so I can 

 connect the addition next year by ex- 

 tending the pipes without increasing 

 the number of flows or returns f The 

 required temperature will be from 48 

 to 60 degrees. I am located in north- 

 western Ohio. C. W. S. 



For main flows and returns, run two 

 4-inch pipes through the workroom and 

 along the north side of the lean-to. 

 From one of the mains take off three 

 2% -inch pipes to run through the larger 

 house to the farther end; with the 

 other main supply two 2^4 -inch flows 

 for the wide house and then reduce it 

 to a 2%-inch flow pipe to be extended 

 to the east end of the lean-to, where 

 it should be connected with seven 2- 

 inch returns. 



In the large house carry one flow 

 under the ridge, two upon the plates 

 and the remaining two flows under the 

 purlins. For the returns in this house, 

 use fifteen 2-inch pipes, three of which 

 will be supplied at the north end by 

 each of the five 214-inch flow pipes, 

 and, after placing three of the returns 

 on each wall, distribute the others 

 under the benches. In the lean-to all 

 of the pipes can be on the south wall, 

 or a part of them can be on the sides 

 of the solid beds. 



This plan will answer for the present 

 house, and when the addition is made 

 it will merely be necessary to extend 

 the pipes through it.
