WATER HEATER Filed Dec. 2. 1925 for the escape et gases or the .products el eornbustions from the burner, after the heat thereoi has been utilized to heat the Water in the outer easing.

In summer .When the boiler is not in operation, it is obviously not desirable to have Within the inner ehalnber a body of dead eold Water, and hence the drain pipe 15 is provided, 'which drain pipe is used to drain the `wat-er iiroin the inner beatings)` ehainber or easing when the valves 1l and l2 are closed to out 'ot `eonnnun'ication between the Aboiler and said heating chamber. l rlhe nu1neral'20 designates the feed pipe lor lthe storage tank, whiehpipe it will be understood, is suitably connected Witlrtlie Water main. 'Through Ithispipe the water passes into tank l9. 'llhe numeral 21 designates'the outlet pipe, which is the usual pipe Whiefhleads vto the house outlets.

"l he pipe 2 is let into Athe 'hot Water orsteain 5beileratI er a little below the Water line, and the -pipe 3 is similar-ly let in into the boiler below Ithe Water line, so that When the valves ll and l2 are" opened the ehainber oil the heater Will'lbe in communication with the boifleiiand'consequently filled with Water. Art suehtinies it will be understood the burner d'2 need not be 'lightedrand the intensely7 het *Weatheigthe chamber `8 or thin spaee between the lihnerfalnd 'outer easings 5 fand `f6 is yi'i'lled lWith'water to be heated yby the name 'house outlets through tbe outlet pipe 2l.

l lt will be understood that Water is always in the ehan'iber 8, ot the heater.` sinee it is 1 always in comuninieation with the storage tank, but yas betere intimated the Water may be drained treni the inner chamber T without putting` lthe heater out et eonnnission.
