Conilitent. com petent management of the phyalcal plant, auch a* I* revealed by the rec ord of heating syatem management *t Notre Dame, is essential to success. The' first proposal for a Webster Vacuum System of Steam Heating lithe University of Notre Dame was dated June 27, 1899--the installa tion, containing 16,913 square feet ofradiation, was completed in 1900. Thus started a cooperative business relationship that has continued for forty-seven years. During this period focvitably changes have occurred In nrchltects, engineers, contractors, University plant personnel and Webster service personnel. But the service of this business institution to die University has been contin uous. As new requirements arose, as additions and changes were made, os worthwhile new developments in the heating art became available, changes have been made in the University's heating Installation to keep It up to date. This great heating system now to tals 320,000 square feet of radiation --twenty times the size of the origi nal Webster Vacuum System. And each increase has been accompanied by appreciation of the increased importance of quality standards both In material and in operating and maintenance procedures. Currently, to assure at the same time comfort with maximum econ omy of fuel and minimum operating and maintenance costs a Webster Moderator Control System is being installed, designed to (a) balance distribution so that all radiators may be partially heated In mild weather,(b)apply automatic controlby-the-weather to the entire installa tion, (c) centralize all manual con trol to 38 zones at a single operat ing station. How well these results ore accom plished must necessarily be the sub ject of a later report.. In the meantime, our experience is avail able to help you in your heating system management problems.
