Abstract

26,924. Hillier, C., and Hillier, A. Dec. 9. Baths. - In a hotwater heating-system, for baths and for heating room-, conservatories, or the like, the hot-water service for baths may be arranged for heating rooms, the whole system being supplied from a boiler or copper heated by a kitchen range or by a separate fireplace. Fig. 1 shows the general arrangement, and a part of the boiler 5 is shown in detail in Fig. 2. The boiler is placed in a flue which communicates with the kitchen range or with a separate fireplace. The boiler is supplied from the cold-water cistern 16 by a pipe 17 in which is located a valve 18. The outlet from the boiler communicates with the hot-water cistern 19 by a pipe 20. The hot water from the cistern 19 is carried by a pipe 22 to any part of the building, such as the radiators 26 or a bath 24. The hot-water cistern is connected by a bye-pass 21 with the main return 27, which enters the boiler at its lowest point. A vent pipe 28 is also provided. The boiler is provided with a cover 6, Fig. 2, held in position by means of a bolt 9 which passes through the cover and through a four-armed bridge-bar 8 engaging the undersides of lugs 7 cast on the boiler. By closing the tap 18 and removing the cover 6, the boiler may be used for domestic purposes.
