But for the uniform heating of such a ward there is no better way than the hot-water system, used in green- houses and fast coming into use in our best buildings. By using this system both wards, and the centre house as well, can be heated from one fire. The apparatus can be put in the house cellar, and the pipes, properly protected, carried thence out to the wards, around their walls, just under the windows, and then back under the floors to the central apparatus. The chief objection to this s...ystem of heating is that it does not provide any fresh supply of air. It is therefore necessary to arrange for a separate system of ventilation. Apertures can be made in the walls, just opposite the heating-pipes, with registers in them for allowing the entrance of fresh air, which will be- come more or less warmed by passing the hot-water pipes. The familiar window ventilating-screens can also be employed. And for the egress of air from the wards special ventilators should be made in the gables and also in the roof.
