Download or read book The Lost Art of Steam Heating written by Dan Holohan and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This was my first book and a true labor of love. I spent decades studying steam and the work of Dead Men, in both old buildings and on library shelves. I traveled the country, haunting used-book stores, looking for engineering books that held the answers to questions that nagged at me. I was obsessed with this topic, and when I finally sat to write, I poured all that I had learned into this book, and as I wrote, I tried my best to make the words sound good to you - like we were together and having a conversation. I wanted you to know what I know and I wanted you to be able to do what I can do when it comes to old steam systems. This book arrived in 1992 and has since gone though dozens of printings. We've sold it in every state as well as in foreign countries. Steam heat is everywhere there are old buildings, so why shouldn't you be the one with the answers? Dan Holohan

Download or read book Pumping Away and Other Really Cool Piping Options for Hydronic Systems written by Dan Holohan and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I wrote this book to describe the beautiful workings of hydronic heating systems and I tried to use words that made the subject spring to life in a visual way. It's been one of my best-selling books for years. I kept the drawings simple. Even if you've never worked with hydronics before, you'll be able to follow these drawings. The first part deals with boiler-room piping and explains how you can put the discoveries of the late, great Gil Carlson to work for you. If you pipe Gil's way, you'll save time, money and never again have to bleed radiators. Thousands of installers have reported great success by following the principles in the first part of this book. I wish I could take credit but the genius was Gil Carlson's. I just did my best to tell his story in plain English. The second half of the book takes the "Pumping Away" boiler-room piping design and applies it to a delicious menu of piping options. This is a book that you'll refer to again and again. It will save you time and money. And I guarantee that. - Dan Holohan

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Steam and Hot Water Heating and Ventilation: A Modern Practical Work on Steam and Hot Water Heating and Ventilation, With Descriptions and Data of All Materials and Appliances Used in the Construction of Such Apparatus; Rules, Tables, Etc From a more or less experimental stage to one of an exact science has been the progress of the art of artificial heating and ventilation during the period covering the past twenty-five or thirty years. In the early days of this industry there were but few competent fitters located outside of the larger cities. However, of later years the above conditions have changed, due in a great measure to the constant advancement and education of the steam fitting trade. To-day it is not an uncommon thing to find in a small city or town one or more steam fitters entirely competent to install almost any kind of a steam or hot-water heating apparatus. This education of the steam fitter has been accomplished largely by the frequent publication in the trade papers of much practical information, accompanied by drawings and data which could be readily understood by him. The publication of a number of books on the subject of Steam and Hot-Water Heating and Ventilation has also been of great assistance to the steam fitter in his mental advancement. However, much of the matter contained in these books is too technical and of a nature too difficult to be clearly understood by a man of average education. In presenting this work the author wishes to give a brief history of the science of steam and hot-water heating and ventilation and the early methods of constructing work, and to describe and illustrate the advancement and improvements over the earlier methods.
