Central Station Heating is a book written by Byron Towne Gifford and originally published in 1918. The book is a comprehensive guide to central heating systems, specifically those used in large buildings such as hospitals, schools, and factories. It covers everything from the basic principles of heating to the design and installation of heating systems, as well as the maintenance and repair of these systems.The book begins with an overview of the different types of central heating systems, including steam, hot water, and forced air systems. It then goes on to discuss the different components of these systems, such as boilers, radiators, and pipes, and how they work together to provide heat to a building. The book also covers the various fuels that can be used to power these systems, including coal, oil, and gas.Throughout the book, Gifford provides detailed instructions on how to design and install a central heating system, including how to calculate the heating load for a building, how to size boilers and radiators, and how to lay out piping systems. He also provides guidance on how to maintain and repair these systems, including how to troubleshoot common problems and how to perform routine maintenance tasks.Overall, Central Station Heating is a valuable resource for anyone involved in the design, installation, or maintenance of central heating systems. Its clear and concise explanations, along with its practical advice and detailed illustrations, make it an essential reference for engineers, architects, contractors, and building owners alike.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
