New Type Heater Voporizes
Liquid Fuel With Hot Air

now available is made of vinyl
plastic. This one is solid plastic
through to the underlining. Even
the bright colors employed are
part of the plastic itself. The
black backing of the tile is the
permanently sealed underlining
which is fused to the tile under
heat and pressure so that it is
part of the tile. In such con-
struction one can be sure that the
complete tile is sealed to the under
floor.
This waterproof floor covering
lis available by the yard as well
as in tiles and is laid like limo
Ileum. If laid on wood, a light
weight semisaturated felt SHOULD
be used; however. this floor cover
ing can be laid on any firm,
smooth Surface-Wood or concrete.
1t should not be installed on con-
crete which is in contact with the
earth Gas in cellars) nor on out
door patios or terraces.
Because of it's wearing qualities,
this vinyl plastic floor covering
needs no wax or other protection
and makes an ideal top on kitchen
counters, sink tops and splash
boards, because spilled foods, bev-
|erages, fats, greaSes, harsh clean
ers, lye, alkali or even household
acids, according to the manufac-
turer, will not hurt it in any way.
It is non-porous and will not
shrink or expand.
The tiles are 9x9 inches each.
There are seven widths by the
yard as well as borders and fea-
ture strips. Installation instruc-
tions are supplied by the manu-
facturerS.

make it possible to get warm air to
all parts of the home quicker. BY
clean filters at the be-
ginning of the summer season, the
nome owner who uses the furnace
blower to circulate air through the
house during the summer months
can rely on his filters to clean a
good percentage of air-borne pol
lens out of the air in his house.
Clean Furnace Humidifier.
The furnace humidifier should
be checked for cleanliness and
correct operation. Accumulations
of lime or scale should be removed
and the flow valve used in the
should be put in good
working condition so that no
leakage or spillage of water from
the humidifier causes rusting of
furnace parts.
If your humidifier uses fiber
plates to disseminate moisture
into the air stream, these plates
should be inspected to see if
of lime interfere
with their correct functioning. If
so, these plates should be replaced.
With the development of more
operations of furnaces
and heating systems, the home
owner has had less reason to
realize that he actually had a
in his house that was
him with heating COM
fort day in and day out during
the winter season.
AS a result, he is liable to for
get that, like any mechanical ap-
paratus, his furnace needs a
periodic service checkup, too. If
he will make it a point to have 1t
inspected each spring and have
any necessary repairs made, he
will find that his equipment will
give him many more years of
economical, comfort producing
operation.
Furnace inspection and repairs
should be made by trained
heating man experienced in max
ing any necessary adjustments and
repairs to the equipment.
Evening star., 1952-06-14
Now Is the Time
To Start Inspection
Of Your Furnace

Now that the heating season
Is over, it's a good idea to sched-
lle an early inspection of your
heating plant.
1t is best to do this for a num-
Der of reasons, experts in the
home-heating business say. First,
II you have had any heating trou-
BILE over the past winter, you will
still have fresh in your memory
. those conditions which caused dis
comfort or inconvenience so that
they can be outlined in detail to-
the service man whom you call
IN. Your experiences of the past
winter will be easily forgotten and
so will your heating problems un-
til the first cold days of next win
ter bring them to your attention
again.
, Then. too, cleaning OF the fur
mace should be done before the
humid days of summer set in. Ac-
cumulations of SCOT attract mois-
ture and hold it against the metal
parts of the heating systems,
bringing rust and corrosion. If
yours is a gaS-burning furnace.
1t is generally recommended that
you leave the pilot burn through
out the summer in order to keep
the interior of the furnace free
Of moisture. Spring cleaning of
the pilot light is good practice,
too, because dust and lint over
the winter season can plug the
small pilot orifice to a point that
Keeping the pilot light burning is
difficult.
An inspection must" in all fur
naces is to see that no openings or
cracks have developed in the COM
bustion chamber, which will serve
as air leakage spots when the fur
mace is operating. If such are
found. they should be repaired.
If yours is an automatic fuel
burning furnace-using gas or oil
its a good idea to have the
burner checked and adjusted for
correct flame characteristics and
input. A poorly adjusted burner
can waste fuel expensively. Nov
ing parts in oil burners should be
oiled.
The f1ue and chimney should be
inspected for any deterioration or
blockage. The smoke pipe leading
from the furnace to the chimney
should especially be checked to
see that corrosion has not caused
pin holes to develop which will
leak products of combustion into
the living area of the house.
Replace Filters.
Air filters should be cleaned or
replaced depending on the type OF
filter with which your furnace is
equipped. The average air filter
is capable of removing about IS
per cent of the dust from the air
going through it. When one con-
siders that the forced warm air
furnace in an average size house
will circulate over a million cubic
feet of air through it during "a
hour day, he can realize that his
furnace filters are bound to trap
a big load of dust during the heat
ing season.
! Clean filters create less resist
ance to air flow and thus make
blower operation easier as well as

By D. M. Derwin

A new-principle heating device
can be installed to supplant the
|present pot-type burner and gun
type atomizing oil burner. The
principle involved is the vaporiza-
ton of the liquid fuel by means
of regenerated hot air.
This new heating unit generates
gas from heavy liquid fuel such as
kerosene, and Nos. l. 2 and
fuel oil. It burns fuel quietly with
a blue flame and gives the user
the advantage of gas combustion
with the economy of fuel oil.
The unit Itself is 6 inches in
diameter and 4 inches wide and
operates on a 1/40 of horSepow-
er motor. The furnace designed
around this burner will be small
and will need no chimney be-
cause the unit requires no excess
air. A pinch pipeline to serve as
vent is all that is necessary. Air
for combustion is supplied by a
motor driven fan.
Installation, it is stated by the
manufacturer, could be done by
any one in the standard oil burner
and hot water heater line.
Plastic Floor Covering.
The wearing qualities of any
floor covering is not determined
by the thickness of the covering
used but by the quality and dura-
bility that is built into the prod
uct. For example. a thin sheet of
steel or aluminium is much more
durable than a thick piece of
wood. In floor coverings it is very
much the same thing-if durabili-
ty is built in, the wear of shuffling
feet can be withstood for a long
time.
One such quality floor covering
