SOOT IN HEATING
PLANT EXPENSIVE
/
Look to Grates and Firepot
Before Wintry Blizzards
Descend on Home.
Before heavy midwinter blizzards
come and long severe “cold spells” set
in, warns the Hdlland Institute of
Thermology of Helland, Mich. a thor-
ough inspection of the heating plant,
should be made to see that it can car-
ry the heavy load of late December,
January and February. Seven points
about heaters themselves, aside
system, sheuld be attended to.
from
| fuels and other parts of the heating
If all the rooms in a house are to |
be, heated, a single central
plant and a single chimney should be

installed instead of a number of stoves”
with several chimneys.
Few home heaters
have auxiliary |
ashpits below floor level, and there- |
fore the owner must be prepared to
remove the ashes once a day without |
\
fail.
Soot Proves Costiy.
Provide yourself “with a long, flex-
ibie-handled scraper to clean out the
interior heating surfaces through
which smoke and hot gases pass—or,
better, have your heating plant cleaned
by the vacuum cleaner process.
Even |
with the most modern vapor-air heat- |
ing plant, an eighth of an inch of soot
| reduces heating efficiency 28 per cent,
and an accumulation a quarter inch
thick cuts efficiency 48 per cent.
See that there is a check damper |
in the smoke pipe to check the draft.
Opening the fire-dodr for this purpose |
is wasteful of “fuel.
Grate Should Be Sound.
engineers agree that
grate is one of the most
items in the entire heating plant.
Your grate should be perfectly sound
and whole. It should be large enough.
Heating
enough to carry suflicient fuel to fire
your heating plant to full efficiency.
the |
important |
| und the firepot itself should be deep |
Otherwise too frequent firing will be |
required. The center-pivoted
type grate meets the .requirements of
cone- |
good draft, preventing fuel from drop- |
ping into ‘the ashpit and promoting |
easy shaking.
In no circumstances go into the |
heavy heating season with a cracked |
firepot.
Call a reliable heating com- |
pany and have new parts installed if |
that is necessary. Firepots for soft
coal in several types of heaters are
slotted to introduce -- pre-heated air.
This helps to promote complete com-
bustion of. the gases contained in bi-
tuminous coals. 3
See that the smoké pipe connection
between central ' heating plant and
chimney is in first-rate’ condition. "This
