GALVANIZED IBON WOKE. 



There has been some discussion 

 among heating experts as to the advisa- 

 bility of using galvanized pipe for heat- 

 ing greenhouses, and there seems to 

 be some difference of opinion as to how 

 much resistance the galvanizing produces 

 as a non-conductor of heat. I happen 

 to have some galvanized pipes in use 

 for steam heating and have looked into 

 the matter thoroughly. My conclusions 

 may, therefore, be of interest to some 

 of the growers. I find the difference in 

 heat radiation is slight and hardly 

 worth considering. In fact, I believe 

 a galvanized pipe radiates more heat 

 than either a well painted pipe or a 

 rusty one. 



Another point that may well be men- 

 tioned is that even if there is a trifle 

 more radiation from new black pipe, 

 there is a corresponding saving of steam 

 in galvanized pipe. That is, even if 

 the pipes do not throw off quite so 

 mnch heat, the steam does not con- 

 dense so fast inside the pipes and there 

 is less difficulty in keeping them re- 

 plenished with fresh steam; therefore 

 there is no difference in the amount of 

 fuel used. The only difference is that 

 of first cost of installing the pipe. 



Personally, I believe it would be bet- 

 ter if all the heating pipes were gal- 

 vanized. A galvanized pipe is galvan- 

 ized inside and outside. If you paint 

 a pipe, the paint is only on the outside 

 and will stick there only a short time. 

 The common black steel pipe on the 

 market nowadays is pretty poor stuff 

 and extremely short-lived around a 

 greenhouse. Wrought-iron pipe, the 

 old-fashioned, heavy, stiff kind, can not 

 be had any more, and this is to be re- 

 gretted, as it was almost as good as 

 galvanized pipe. 



There is not enough of galvanized 

 material used in greenhouse construc- 

 tion. I do not see why people use so 

 mnch black iron work and then spend 

 more money in painting it than it would 

 cost to get galvanized ware. Galvan- 

 ized pipe gutter posts are the best posts 

 on the market today. They require no 

 paint at all, nor any cast base to set 

 them in, as they will not rust off at 

 grade level unless ashes, cinders, etc., 

 are placed around them. They are as 

 strong and stiff as a cast post, or more 

 BO, and are the cheapest of all, consid- 

 ering the cost of painting, which must 

 be done again later. Galvanized scratch 

 pipe, culled out of best grade, is the 

 kind used for gutter posts and can be 

 purchased cut at the right lengths. 



The same can be said of the purlin 

 supports. Galvanized purlins, whether
