CAPAQTY OF BOILER. 



Some time ago I asked you whether my 

 boiler was large enough to heat a range 

 containing the following houses, located 

 in Wisconsin: Three houses, each twen- 

 ty-one feet eight inches wide by 120 feet 

 long; one house 10x120 feet; another 

 house 28x60, and a sixth house 20x36, 

 besides an office 20x20. You replied that 

 you could not answer my question be- 

 cause I had not given sufficient data with 

 regard to the boiler. 



The boiler is eleven feet long and five 

 and one-half feet deep; round shell, with 

 water space all around. It contains 

 twenty-four 4:'^-inch flues, six feet long, 

 and forty-eight 3-inch return flues, six 

 feet long. The outlet is 7-inch and the 

 inlet 5-inch, which I think is not large 

 enough for the outlet. Which is the best 

 way to pipe these houses, for hot water? 

 I have enough 2-inch pipes for returns 

 for one house; the rest of the return 

 pipes are 114-inch. I have to buy pipes 

 for two houses. Which do you think is 

 the better, 2-inch or 1 14 -inch f L. O. 



Your boiler should be ample for the 

 proposed plant, but it will not carry any 

 additions. 



I should not use pipe as small as 1%- 

 inch for hot water, except in short 

 houses. In houses over sixty feet, use 

 1%-inch pipe, and in houses from ninety 

 to 120 feet, use 2-inch; 1%-inch pipe is 

 about the smallest size it is advisable to 

 use for hot water heating. L. C. C. 



PIPING FOR AN EXTENSION. 



I have a greenhouse 171/^x50, running 

 north and south. On the east side of 

 this is another house, 10x31, with a 

 10x31 lean-to built against it. The 

 south end of the houses forms a 

 straight line. The boiler-room is at the 

 north end of the short house, and is low

INSTALL A 



"DETROIT" Return Trap 



AND YOU BUY A GUARANTEE] 



It takes 90 to 120 lbs. of steam per horse power to operate 

 an ordinary boiler feed pump. "Detroit" Return Traps 

 require only about one-tenth that amount. Why not save 

 the nine-tenths ? \ 



Write us size of boiler and number of sqnare feet of glass 

 in your greenhouses, for our proposition.
