How to Lock Out Air: The Heat Thief
Here is a wonderful little book from Hoffman Specialty from 1927 called How To Lock Out Air: The Heat Thief. It includes some great pictures. It makes the case for steam heating systems, shares how a one-pipe steam heating system operates, how to vacuumize a one-pipe steam heating system, why Hoffman No. 2 vacuum valves save one-third of your fuel, how Hoffman No. 2 vacuum valves pay for themselves in less than 2 years, as well as some customer testimonials.
