In the use of a thermostatalone, the regulation is that of the temperature of the rooms only,and has nothing to do with the steam pressure. As an example:Suppose that in cold weather the house is cold and that the gageof the steam boiler shows no pressure. The desire is to get upsteam as soon as possible. In so doing a hot fire is made with alarge amount of fuel. As soon as the steam begins to form, thepressure rises rapidly. When the radiators have become hot andthe steam is no longer taken away as fast as it is formed, the pres-.
