TRAVIS GREENHOUSE ROCKER GRATES 



r. Do you understand the advantages Kocker grates have over 

 stetionary grates? Practical Rocker grates will open all air 

 spaces at will, giving complete combustion of gases. Cinders 

 and ashes collect soon after Hres are started and they should be 

 removed. Just as you can check your Are by closing the damper, 

 so you can check it by allowing the grate openings to become 

 flUed with cinders and ashes. Do you know how easy it is to 

 hold steam and what a small amount of coal is required the first 

 hour after cleaning your grates? You can Are all night on our grates and the effect will be nearly the same throughout the night. Practically all new 

 furnaces are now equipped with rocker srates. They have been made for 40 years, but many are using stationary grates becauce they have tried some 

 make of rocker grate and been disappointed. Our grates make friends and wheie once used, others follow. Greenhouse operators over the entire country 

 are now using our grates and great numbers have been installed in Illinois, to which state we have given special attention. 



The Design of your Rocker Orates is just as important as that of your boiler or any other attachments you may have. Some Rocker Orates are 

 better than others and the difference in service will surprise you. We fit any size or style of furnace ^ ithout making any changes. I»rompt thipments. 



For prices, give size of furnace.
