Has been victorious over allother deilces forcovprlnc boilers with which It has I n hroujilit into competi tion, both In Huropo and America, for tho past twclvo jenrs Kiidorsed by Ilia Kclrnt(Rc Amerlran and Loudon Knglneerlng cierywheru as belnjr the lust Non-conductor, tho most llellublc, tho moit Economical. Tho "Air Spaco" ilsa nieclianlcal device. Tho old method nf roertnB boilers, steam and other hot pipes, was to smear a coating of plaster out tlio boilers and pipes, and directly In contact with the hot surfaces. Common sense teaches that any compound thus applied lll soon have tho life burnt out nf It, and that the ex pansion and contraction of thn metal oier Hhlch It Is smeared. Mill cause It to loosen unit crack, so that It will, after a time, fall nil. Ilc-lilcs this, uxperieuce has proved that the lime and other compounds used for this purposo, Mhen applied direct to the boiler surfaces, corrodes the boilers so as to preatly Injuru them. Tho Air Spaco series a t unfold purpose; first it pro vides a stratum of air entirely around the boiler, iihlch Is tho best known non-ennductor of beat. Second. It provides a surface which In entirely Independent of the boiler surface upon Mhlcli tho covertmr compound is placed, and this surface bdrii; formed of n ire cloth of it-Inch mesh, furnishes a spb udid means nf clinchtnt; or fastening the compound around the boiler. The Mtro space Is supported at the spaco nf an Inch or moro from the boiler or hot plpo by metal studs placed clostf together, so that the evtmnslnn or contraction of thu boiler or pipes around which It In placed villi not af fect the outsido covering, because the stud allows a sulllcient mniement without disturbing the surround Inu wlru and inier. Experience and practical tests ham demonstrated beyond n doubt that the radiation of heat from a boiler urrounded by the "Air bpace "and its roiei.,11:, Is les than that from a boiler covered iilth any of the other Mell known boiler coicrlnus; consequently there is a greater saving of fuel.
