Kroeschell Tenus Cast Iron 



The No. 7 Boiler I bought 

 from you 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 tem- 

 perature of 50° In the coldest 

 weather. I flre 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 

 writeme, fori think your boil- 

 ers are good ones.

Cast Iron Boilers Crack 



Our large cast iron sectional 

 boiler cracked one section and 

 the header last Sunday. It 

 seemed to turn cold about the 

 same time that the break oc- 

 curred. By Monday night it 

 was 14° below zero. However, 

 by putting up coal stoves, oil 

 stoves, lamps and pushing up 

 the small furnace we have 

 managed to kefep most of our 

 stock in pretty good shapie, and 

 our total loss, furnace aAd all, 

 will be between |;500 and $600. 

 Just luck that It was 'not all 

 gone. 



New Kroeschell ,boller or- 

 dered by telegraph on Sunday, 

 shipped Monday, reached here 

 on Friday; hauled to green- 

 house on Saturday and started 

 a fire Sunday; just seven days 

 and ten hours after the acci- 

 dent. When dealing with people 

 who will deliver a boiler as 

 quick as that you cannot give 

 up. Yours very truly,

CAST IRON BOILERS CRACK 



I want to thank you for your promptness in shipping the boiler 

 I ordered of y^u on January 13th. I had a breakdown, one of a 

 battery of two cast iron boilers rrarked so it was impossible to 

 use same, so I got you on the telephone at 8:30 a. m., January 

 13th, and ordered one of your hot water boilers. Same was put 

 in my boiler room in the afternoon of January 15th, after which 

 we built foundation and connected up. Since that time the boiler 

 has taken care of same glass as the two cast iron boilers had 

 done, easier and better in every way.

Kroeschell versus Cast Iron 



Have no trouble to keep up 

 temperatures in my houses 

 with the No. 10 Kroeschell 

 Boiler. The boiler has given 

 entire satisfaction. We had a 

 cast iron sectional boiler — I 

 wouldn't have one for a gift 

 any more.

Kroeschell Better Than Cast Iron 



The Kroeschell boiler is in- 

 deed a dandy and beats any 

 east iron boiler we have had 

 any experience with.

Kroeschell vs. Return Tubular Boiler 

 Kroeschell Saved ^ the Coal 



The No. 4 Kroeschell Boiler 

 purchased of you in 1909 has 

 given the very best satisfaction 

 — would wish no better. Have 

 taken out return tubular boiler 

 this fall which used one-half 

 more coal than your present 

 boiler. Your boiler is so easy 

 to regulate that in a few min- 

 utes I can run up the tempera- 

 ture very quickly. The return 

 and How connection with Gen- 

 erator, all work the very best 

 according to your plans.

CAST MON 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. WM. GEENEN, Klmberly, Wis.

SMOKING CHIMNEYS. 



The smoking of greenhouse chimneys 

 is caused by sending particles of un- 

 burnt carbon or hydrocarbons into the 

 air, and the density of smoke may be 

 reduced to almost any degree by sim- 

 ply diluting it with air without alter- 

 ing the total amount of solid matter 

 emitted. To compare the amount of 

 preventable smoke discharged from two 

 chimneys it is necessary to know the 

 amount of coal being burned in the 

 furnaces. Many so-called smoke-pre- 

 venting devices simply aim at diluting 

 the gases with excess of air during the 

 time smoke is most likely to be given 



Few boiler furnaces fail to supply 

 siiflieient air for the complete combiis- 

 I'oii of the coal fired in them. About 

 twelve pounds of air is necessary to 

 ^"I'l'ly the oxygen for completely burn- 

 "i^r one pound of coal and under actual 

 ^"'iditions most furnaces ])ass from 

 twenty to t;>irty pounds of air per 

 pound of coal. The reason smoke is 

 ^"iitted is that the air is not intimately 

 niixed with the carbon and is not at a 

 sufficiently high temperature. 



t^ne problem of insuring complete 

 j'ombustion of bituminous coal is main- 

 y one of temperature and involves con- 

 tinually keeping the furnace at a high 

 '<?mperature, which is by no means
