Radiant Heating Means Comfort
For Farm Homes
BY WILLIAM ". BROOKS
Building Department
BY WILLIAM w. BROOKS

THE ELECTRIC WATER SYS-
TEN, providing a dependable sup
ply of running water under pres
sure at low cost, is the magic key
to better health and better living on
the farm.
The electric water system not only
makes possible the convenience of a
kitchen sink, modern laundry, and a
bathroom, as well as running water
for the stock and the garden, but
also makes it possible for the farm
family to have an automatically
fired hot water heating system. Such
a heating system, providing radiant
heat for every room in the house,
keeps the farm home uniformly
comfortable and BEAUTIFULLY warm
in any kind of weather.
Heart of the radiant heating sys-
tenn is the hot water boiler. Years
ago when hot water systems oper-
ated by gravity, you had to have
your boiler in the basement. This is
no longer necessary. The boiler will
operate just as we'll from a utility
room, the back porch, the kitchen,
or even the attic. Most hot water
boilers are the so-called wet base
type. This means they may safely
be installed on a wooden floor since,
the water circulating under the ash
pit, there is no fire hazard.
Modern Boilers
The newest types of hot water
boilers are dressed up with a color
full jacket so that they are attrac-
Montana farmer-stockman., 1948-03-01

tive in appearance as well as con4-
pact and efficient. There are two
general types of boilers: Those de-
signed for a special fuel, for in
stance, an oil-burning boiler; those
called all-fuel boilers, which can be
converted from fuel to another.
An important part of the radiant
heating system is the circulator or
pump which mechanically forces the
circulation of the water from the
boiler to the heat distributing units.
The instant the thermostat calls for
heat, the pump swings into action
and the radiator or other heat dis
tributing units begin to warm up.
The circulation is positive; there is
no such thing as a radiator that
won't warm up.
Extensions TO Other Buildings
Another advantage of forced cir
culation is that poultry houses, barns,
garages, farm work shops or other
buildings can easily be heated by
the same boiler which heats the
house. The pump, if adequate in size,
will force the hot water to any To-
cation where it may be wanted.
There are four ways in which heat
can be distributed with a radiant
heating system. The choice is largely
a matter of personal preference al
though other factors, such as the
construction and age of the house,
and the availability of equipment,
may have to be considered.
The four methods of heat distribu-
