I have a greenhouse 14x37 and ten and one-half feet high to the ridge. The side walls are six and one-half feet high and there are two feet of glass in the east wall.

How many lineal feet of 2-inch pipe will be needed to heat the house? Which arrangement of the returns is the more effective, on the side walls or under the benches?
