Water-Tube Boiler Co.,
MANUFACTURERS OF
Patent Sectional
ater-T Tube Boilers.

Many new and important improvements
have been made in the production Of boilers,
both marine and station sry, and Providence
possesses a plant which is noted for the many
points of superiority cf the boilers manu-
factured there.
We refer to the Almy Water. Tube Boiler
Company. whose large works are located at
No. Al Clifford street and which are COM
pletely equipped for the prompt fulfiment OF
all orders received. They practically devote
their entire energies TO the manufacture OF
Almy's patent wateNtube boilers for either
marine or stationery work and have built up
a splendid reputation in "a comparatively
short space of time. This roller Is d esl xned TO
fill all the requirements necessary in a perfect
steam generator, is very simple in construc-
tion with perfect circulation, mud drum re-
ceiving all precipitation, has a largo CON-
bustion chamber, very large amount OF
effective heated surface, provided with the
latest and most approved method OF steam
separation and having strength in large excess
over any strain to which il may be subjected.
Expansion is carefully provided for and 1t Is
easy OF access TO all parts for repairs and
cleaning The Almy boiler Is constructed of
either wrought iron or steel pipes, either or
dlnary or extra strong and the manifolds and
all other fittings inside OF the casing are of
maleable iron of excellent quality, made
from their own patterns and of extra strength.
For marine purposes this boiler has many
merits peculiarly its own and also some in
common with others. A few points in its
favor are that il requires very limited space
on board ship, is non-explosive and there Is
absolutely no risk from fire. Its very slight
radiation OF heat gives the fireman something
never before obtainable-ac cool flre-rCom, and
being of very light weight, the great masses
of iron usually found in marine boilers are
conspicuous by their absence.
IL Is a very quick steaming boiler as steam
can be got upon IL in from ten 10 twenty min
utes. is economical In fuel and not difficult TO
care for.
These boilers have been placed in very
large number Of yachts, launches, passenger
steamers, ETC.. and have given entire salts
faction in every respect. IL also has many
merits Of its own for stationery work, and In
large cities. where space Is costly, IL offers the
advantage Of large power in small space, with
absolutely nordanyer from explosion.
Many large manufacturing plants are now
securing fire pumps of large capacity, so as 10
have immediate power 10 quench any fire be-
fore it makes any headway. The Almy Sec
tionaI water-Tube Boiler is just the thing
for such purposes. as IL Is easily capable Of
raising steam from cold water as quick as a
fire engine. when fire is laid ap for that
purpose.
