AMERICAN HOMES AND GARDENS 



XIU 



Fresh-air heating 



No matter how cold and long the night, you can beat back 

 the nipping frost and keep every cubic foot of your house 



freshly ventilated and 

 radiantly warmed by 



AMERICAN;? Ideal 



ii Radiators ^Iboilers 



IDEAL Boilers steadily and uni- 

 formly deliver the Steam or Hot 

 Water to AMERICAN Ventilating Radiators day and night, without recoaling for 

 periods of eight, ten or twelve hours, as you wish, in most bitter weather. The 

 fire need not be rekindled during the entire heating season. Anyone can run the 

 outfit no way to get out of order — absolutely safe. The fuel and labor savings 

 quickly repay the difference in cost over old-fashioned heating methods. The 

 outfit lasts a lifetime — no repairs. Increases value of building for living, renting 

 or selling. The purchaser thus gets his money back. 



One small fire in an IDEAL Boiler does better work than a half-dozen grates, 

 stoves, Baltimore heaters, cr hot-air furnaces, for it warms the house evenly — no 

 matter how the nights behave or North winds rage. 



ADVANTAGE 9 : Experience has taught us that 

 no heating outfit should be without a check-draft in 

 smoke-pipe. The special device we supply with all 

 IDEAL Boilers is as sensitive as a pair of fine scales, 

 and does much to insure automatic control of the fire 

 and bring about the marked fuel economy for which 

 IDEAL Boilers are noted. 



Our catalogues (free) explain many other advantages 

 and offer a wealth of heating and ventilating information

 churches, etc. — ALL buildings — OLD or new —FARM

Kinnear Pressed Radiators 



Selected for 



THE SINGER BUILDING, NEW YORK 



Ernest Flagg, Architect 



THE TALLEST BUILDING IN THE WORLD 



These Radiators were chosen only after the 

 most rigid examination and exhaustive test of 

 all the radiators in the market, the tests 

 thoroughly demonstrating that Kinnear 

 Pressed Radiators exceeded every possible 

 requirement for efficiency and durability. 



/n /lie To-ver alone the use of /hese- Radiators 

 effects a saving of loo tons in weight. 



The economy of enormously valuable space 

 was another consideration, no radiation on 

 earth requiring so little space as Kinnear 

 Pressed Radiators. 



What applies to the Singer Building applies 

 to any other structure, regardless of size. 

 The small office building, store or residence 

 that installs these Radiators (weighing less 

 than one-third as much as cast-iron) reduces 

 cost of construction and gains materially in 

 space required. 



And remember that when desired, Kinnear 

 Pressed Radiators may be placed 



On the Wall — Off the Floor 

 Out of the Way 



If you are building you owe it to yourself 

 to investigate this modern radiation before 

 deciding what you will install. 



Write for Catalog "D " for any desired in- 

 formation.

 are a hundred architects specifying them to-day 

 where one specified them twenty years ago. It pays.
