No Heating Plant Can Do It All
The best heating plant in the world can't heat the whole outdoors and
that is just what is expected of every heating plant when installed in a building where windows and doors are not weatherstripped. Heating engineers should recognize the value of preventing heat loss rather than attempt to design a heating plant to take care of any loss no matter how great. There fore, Chamberlin cooperation and the completeness of Chamberlin service merits prime consideration in the computations of the careful engineer, architect and builder.
