CHATS WITH
YOUR
GAS MAN

When the term BTU" is
mentioned in connection with
gas standards, do not be con-
| fused. 1t means Heat Unit
that and nothing more. The
''B'' stands for British; the ST" j..
for Thermal, meaning Heat;
and the ~" for Unit British
Thermal Unit, or Heat Unit.
Heat, like many of the things
we use, such as cloth, sugar,
potatoes, lumber, etc, can be
measured. A definite amount
of heat must be applied to any
object to raise ii from one tenn
perature to another. Thus the
quantity of heat necessary TO
warm one pound of water one
degree in temperature is called
a Heat Unit.
When burned, gas gives up or
produces a definite number Of
Heat Units. Tests are taken at
our plant every day to make
sure that The proper number of
heat units are in every cubic
foot of gas we send out. An
instrument called Calorimeter
is used.
There is nc guesswork in the
gas business. Both the Quality
and Quantity of gas are deter
mined by machines that are sci,
entihcally perfect.
