Forced Flow Aids Heating

Among the many improvements which have greatly increased the efficiency of hot water heating systems is the installation or a‘ mechanically operated water cir- culating devices, according to the Canadian Institute cl Plumbing and Heating.

Instead of relying on gravity to~

circulate the water through the pipes and radiators, circulation is speeded up by an electric pump. 1 Too often with the old system too little variation is obtainable be-

tween over-heatedness and insuf- ficiency of heat. In the new heat- ing systems water can be deliver‘ ed at low or high temperature. ac- cording to mild or cold weather. Equlppcd with thermostatic con- 1,1015, a. more even ‘temperature can be maintained throughout the heating season. More heatinﬂ 60m‘ fort is provided and at the same time, fuel consumption -is lower- ed. 3y equipping the system with an

eectrle pump, radiators respond almost immediately, while under the gravity system, there is an in- terval oi‘ 20 to 50 minutes before radiators are warmed up alter the heating plant is started. With cir- culation forced by means of the electric pump there is practically no time lag and water reaches the radiators at once.

Since the irater is circulated more quickly and at a higher tem- perature, smaller radiators and pipes may be used. These and many other improvements in heat- ing equipment are made easily available to Canadian householders under the easy terms of the Home Improvement Plan.

Stability

Why is land with or without buildings called "real estate?" Land and improvements are called “real estate” because they constitute the most stable and real of all material posessions, accord- ing to a realty expert. Buildings

have a comparatively long life, AI

section of the ea.rth’s surfaces may

continue in existence for millions?

of years -that is interesting purc- ly as a geological fact.

From the real estate standpoint it changes in value comparativefy slowly. From forest to farm, to vil- lage, to city, to whatever the next step may be. is a process of gen- erations. Therefore. from the hu- man standpoint, real estate is a good name for the land and 1m- provements upon it.

That fact. however, does not li-

cense the misuse of it. The gam- i

bling instinct Ls strong in human nature. Mankind likes to take chances-to make easy money. Un-

Wildened Doorway . Adds Spaciousness

A wide doorway from hall to liv- ing room creates a feeling of spa- ciousness. If a home owner con- templates the widening of a nar- row doorway. however, he must first assure himself that wall framing which acts as support for the floor above is amply Strung W do its duty after some of it has been removed to widen the door- way-

It may be necessary to substitute two stouter, timbers at the sides oi the opening for the studding which now carries the vreight oi‘ the second-storey flooring and wall and a heavier horizontal member to extend from the top or one of the heavier uprights lo that of the

other. ‘ -

i Insulation Has_ , Two Purposes]

Insulating materials are made for two purposes: To prevent heat and cold penetration and to stop sound. Insulation against heat is widely used in all kinds of.buiid- ings. and few buildings are now built without some insulation of this sort

Insulation against sound, how- ever, ls confined at the present tim e generally to commercial buildings, retail stores, hotels and public buildings. Sound insulation and acoustical treatments should not be confused. Sound insulation stops the transmission of sound‘

acoustical treatment is used to

echoes. ‘There are some that serve both purposes. Insulation against sound pene-

as a wall or ceiling finish. Many of the insulating wailboard; are now made for acoustical work that

sion as well. The make-up of the material itself cuts down the pene- tration of sound and the surface finish prevents the reﬂection of sound.
