STEAM.hEATlNG SYSTEM.

The steam heating system was in
stalled by the d. w James & Bro.
Heating Co., OF Salt Lake City, under
the plans and Specifications prepared
by r. Kletting, architect, also of Salt
Lake City.
The steam heating system Is Of the
low pressure gravity down feed type.
The water Of condensation returning
direct to the boilers without the use Of
any mechanical device. circulation
of steam below atmospheric pressure is
achieved by the automatic and indie
pendent removal Of air from the system
| without pressure, this being accom-
| pllshed before the steam is admitted:
the apparatus being kept continually
| free Of air, and the circulation main
I talned In each and every radiator by
I means of the natural decrease In vol
| ume Of the steam in the apparatus due
the condensation; this in turn being
governed by the temperature Of the air
In the space 10 be warmed-this desired
end being attained by the use OF the
Paul system.
An automatic air valve Is placed on
each radiator coil, or indirect stack.
and connected with an air riser. The
air risers are run beside the steam
risers and brought together at some
convenient point In the boiler or en-
CINE room, and there connected to the
exhausting apparatus Of the Paul sys-
tenn. Before the steam Is turned on
the plant the exhaustlng apparatus is
put In operation, and the air contained
in all the heat distributors is quickly
removed, and each radiator coil or

the best possible condition 10 receive
steam
Upon opening the supply valve the
steam flows naturally and without
pressure into the radiators. coils, etc.
and its heat closes the automatic air
vssAN-Jn the process Of condensation
a great deal Of heat Is given off by ra-
diators in the form Of radiation" and |
the volume Of steam is being constantly |
decreased In the ratio Of 200 10 !. |
Such decrease creates constant flow |
towards the heat distributors which is |
counteracted by an additional steam |
supply. Means are also provided for
the subsequent removal OF air as rap
idly as II collects. and therefore all the
heat distributors in the heating plant
are maintained at all times in a uni
formly efficient condition to perform
their office
The Paul system has been before the
public for about seven years, and
stands today the most economical
method of heating by steam. 1t Is in
stalled upon over four million square
feet Of heating surface In Office and
public buildings, theaters, hotels, pri-
yate residences, mills, and factories
throughout the United States and Can
ada. The system is applicable 10 all
kinds and forms Of apparatus for heat
ng or drying by steam, and has ef-
'ected a great advance in economy and
in the operation OF Drying
lans, Slashers, Paper Drying Cylln-
lers etc. The system can be applied
o existing plants as well as Installed
n connection with New York.
IL IS well known fact that the fol-
owing Is accomplished by the use OF
he Paul system Of heating. {
