Central Station Heating is a book written by Byron Towne Gifford and published in 1918. The book provides a comprehensive overview of central station heating systems, which were becoming increasingly popular in the early 20th century as a way to provide heat to large buildings and communities. The book begins with an introduction to the history of central heating and the various types of systems that have been developed over time. It then goes on to discuss the design and construction of central station heating systems, including the selection of boilers, piping, valves, and other components. The book also covers the operation and maintenance of central heating systems, including the importance of water treatment and the various methods used to control temperature and pressure. It includes detailed information on the various types of radiators and convectors used in central heating systems, as well as the different types of fuel that can be used to power them. Throughout the book, Gifford emphasizes the importance of safety and efficiency in central heating systems, and provides practical advice on how to achieve both. He also discusses the economic and environmental benefits of central heating, and provides case studies of successful installations in various settings. Overall, Central Station Heating is a valuable resource for anyone involved in the design, installation, operation, or maintenance of central heating systems, as well as for anyone interested in the history and development of this important technology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
