A pan, or tank, rests on the top of the brickwork, and is connected to the coil in such a manner as to form a perfect circulation ; so that when the tank is filled with water, and a fire started, the water is warmed very rapidly. A flue is formed underneath the bottom of the tank, so that it receives the heat from the fire after it has passed the coil. The coil is also connected with the vat, and forms, with that, a perfect circulation. The upper pipe, the one that supplies the heat to the vat, branches off, and two smaller jiipes are connected to it, and these extend through the space between the tin and wooden \'ats, and are perforated, so Fi. 2S4.— Aitauails. vat, is attached directly to the bottom of the wooden vat.
