HENRY BROERS, 40, Retcar Street, Highgate, London, N., Bricklayer, do hereby
declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
The improved, dome, hot water boiler, is made in two parts. The bottom part of
the boiler is used instead of a grateing. It is made flat round is carried up six inch.
With a opening in front to clean the fire out, and has two returns at the back, and
two openings in front for connection with the top part of boiler. The top part of
boiler is made dome shape according to size required. There is an opening on the
top to feed the fire. It has two flows at the top, a opening at each side for flues
which are built with brick one at each side, the boiler passes underneath into
chimny.
There is one door in front to regulate the fire. It will work with less fire and heat
more pipes then any other furnace. The boiler is more exposed to the fire then any
other boiler. As all the benefit of the fire in side and out side. It want's no
attending at night. It take 5 minutes to clean once a month.
HENRY BROERS, 40, Retcar Street, Highgate, London, N., Bricklayer, do hereby
declare the nature of this invention and in what manner the same is to be
performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the following
statement:-
The improved hot water boiler, is dezigned for heating buildings, is made of cast
or wrought iron, and is made to size required, is dome shape, and in two parts.
Fig. 1. Is the section on the line in plan a to cand c to b shewing side and front
of boilers.
Fig. 2. Is the plan of boilers.
Fig. 3. Is a section through the boilers and flues shewing the boilers and flues in
position.
The top boiler D is most exposed to the fire as the fire is entirely confined in
boiler E and D. Boiler E has a round flat bottom, which is carried 6 inches higher
for D boiler to stand on. The flue holes I at sides of D boiler takes the smoke and
hot air into the flues, F. Then into flue K underneath E boiler to the chimney.
The flues are built in bricks and by the hot air passing through the flues heats the
boilers and brickwork to such a heat that the boilers are able to do more work with
one fourth of the fuel used in ordinary boilers and through slow burning and greater

furnace will stand as long as the boilers last. There is no danger of getting it
damaged. The fire can be left without attending for twelve hours. There is no
heat wasted up the chimney. The cleaning only takes about five minutes once a month.
When the water is boiling it flows out from A flow sockets out of D boiler through
a number of feet of pipes connected to boiler and from that flows into B sockets
into E boiler which heats the water thus preventing check from boiling in D boiler.
As the water passes from E boiler into D boiler through connection as shewing
in Fig. 1. A damper is also used to regulate the fire.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of this invention,
and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what
I claim is
1 (a) Improved hot water boiler and flues constructed substantially as herein
before described and illustrated by the accompanying drawings.
