extra large heating surface gives the 
same heat with third less fuel. All 
boilers are built from 60,000-pound ten- 
sile strength steel, same as steam 
power boilers. Steam heating boilers made where special 
conditions require. Our rocking and dumping grate is 
easily op- 
erated and 
suited to 
different

ANDREWS SYSTEMS® 
Hot Water Heating—Water Supply 
Plumbing—Sewage Disposal, Etc. 
HOMES—CITY AND SUBURBAN 
These Andrews Systems are the outgrowth of twenty-five years of development in heating add plumbing engineering lines in all branches. 
Ours is the business of designing and erecting, as well as of manufacturing; combining under one management both engineering and factory production 
No job is too large—and, for small jobs our methods are the acme of economy and efficiency at low cost. 
We manufacture our own boilers, tanks and equipment, and sell everywhere—‘“‘doing it right in 44 States, Canada and Alaska. 
One of our recent large contracts amounted to $50,000 for our own work. We do large plants, like the University Building shown below; and plan and 
erect special equipment for factories, etc., requiring air purification, special ventilation, etc.; also for heating costly homes. 
How We Do Business 
We furnish everything to make buildings “modern,” 
selling “direct from factory to user’ All material is 
prepared to be screwed together by any handy man. 
Skilled labor is not necessary 
in putting up Andrews Heat- 
ing,Plumbing, Water Supply 
or SewageDisposal Systems. 
When you buy an An- 
drews System you get com- 
plete detailed engineer- 
ing plans of building, 
grounds, as well as of 
apparatus. Material is 
all_ cut, threaded 
and reamed, ship- 
ped in bundles, 
boxed, ready to 
screw together, 
and, with our 
plans and direc- 
tions, can be pro- 
perly put together 
at less expense 
than when cut on 
the job. The ra- 
diators (70 per 
cent. of the 
weight) are ship- 
ped from the nearest distributing 
point. We pay the 
freight. We re-
