Smoke and gases from the heating ! plant rise through the flue in the form of a spiral. A round flue accom- modates this mo- tion without re- tarding the gases by friction. But a chimney with a flue of any other shape produces Round Flue friction. the Best. So in any home modernizing pro- gram, the chimney should be inspected and if its shape and size are not correct, the chimney should be re- built in accord- ance with the best modern prac- tice. The inspec: tion should be done by a reliable heating company that employs the scientific instru- ments required to Square Flue show the volume Not as Good. and velocity of draft and all other factors of chimney efficiency.

Moves Air Without “Drafts” Just what is a draft? The Holland | Institute of Thermology of Holland, | Mich., answers that, according to mod- | ern ventilating standards, a draft is {a current of air more than 5 degrees | cooler than the surrounding air. The | super-circulating warm air system used in summer to keep the home cool as well as in winter to keep it | sarm, performs its summer function i without drafts.
