Each condenser has a sep-arate steam engine-driven circulating pump and dry vacuumpump, the condensers taking the circulating water from a hori-zontal flue or sewer, 10 ft. in diameter, extending under thecentral line of the generating-units, and returning the water toa second flue located just above the intake sewer. Both the in-take and outlet sewers are embedded in the concrete hot water from the condensers is carried to a set of storagetanks, which acts as a hot-well for boiler feeding. The plant is provided with one large open feed-water heaterof the Cochrane type, furnished by the Harrison Safety BoilerWorks. This heater is 8 ft. in diameter and 15 ft. long
