Greenhouse Heatings 



Subscribers are invited to write the 

 Editor of this Department with regard to 

 any details of greenhouse heating that 

 are not understood. But please do not 

 ask The Review to make a choice of ap* 

 paratus for you. The greenhouse heating 

 equipment aavertised in this paper is, we 

 believe, the best for the trade to buy, 

 and each article the best in the special 

 field of its adaptation. 



ONE NEW JERSEY HOUSE. 



Enclosed you will find a plan of my 

 greenhouse, which is 19x110 feet and 

 eleven feet high to the ridge. There is 

 a 6-foot concrete wall on the north. The 

 south wall is five feet high and contains 

 two feet of glass. Both gables are glass 

 down, to three feet from the ground. 

 Th^^roof has 10-foot bars on the north 

 and 12-foot bars on the south. Do you 

 think two 2i^-inch flows and eight 

 2-»^h returns are sufficient piping for 

 50 degrees in zero weather! The 2*4- 

 inch flow in the center will drop down 

 straight and connect with the coil_ of 

 2-inch pipe that comes down on the side, 

 as the door in the west end is north of 

 the post. I have a 5-8ection Burnham 

 boiler, with a grate 18x24 inches. Is this 

 big enough to heat the house t The 

 boiler is in a pit at the east end of the 

 house and its top ift,o»e foot below the 

 ground level. •., G- S. 



The sketch shows a house of the size 

 and construction described in the letter, 

 with one 2^-inch flow pipe under the 

 ridge and another on one of the side

walls at the plate. Each of these flows 

 supplies a coil of four 2-inch pipes upon 

 the walls. To heat such a house to 50 

 degrees, allowing one square foot of 

 radiation to four square feet of glass, 

 will require about 800 square feet of 



radiation and this is almost exactly the 

 amount that will be furnished by the 

 two 2%-inch flow pipes and eight 2-inch 

 returns, if the coil supplied by the over- 

 head main begins at the door in the end 

 of the house. A boiler of the size men-
