II. S. Tells How
to Save on Fuel

structed SO that the heat Is held In;
that the air be kept moist; and that
enough fresh air be admitted either
continuously or from time to time to
avoid the discomfort or unhealthful
conditions due to accumulation of car
bonic acid gas, In selecting fuel, the
bulletin suggests that different kinds
and sizes of coal be tried out.
Should BE Properly Installed.
The best and highest-priced heater
improperly Installed may give less sat-
isfaction than the poorest and cheap
est put in correctly, says the bulletin.
For this reason a man known to under
stand his business should install the
plant. In selecting the furnace, consult
owners OF homes who have had ex-
perlence in operating furnaces of diff
ferent types.
Practically all heating plants have
four hampers. A draft damper In the
door of the ash pit Is opened to admit
air through the fire. which causes 1t
to burn rapidly. A check damper To-
Gated In the smoke pipe Is opened to
admit cold air into the flue, thus inter-
rering with the draft and retardlng the
burning of fuel In the heater. The
damper located In the feed door is used
for the same purpose. Through Ii cold
air is admitted directly over the fire,
and IL opened wide. 1t acts as check.
When regulated properly, It admits just
sufficient air to supplement that adj
mitted through the draft damper and
causes more perfect combustion Of the
fuel. The smoke pipe damper Is To-
Gated between the furnace and the
check draft. and can be used to control
the draft above the fuel In windy
weather or at night.
Ashes should not be permitted to &C.
climulate In the ash pit, as this retards
the draft and the heat causes the CRATE
bars to become warped and bent. As a
rule It is not necessary to shake down
the ashes more than once or twice a
Day. except in very cold weather, and
sinking should be stopped as soon as
live sparks begin to fall into the ash.
