There are two cars trots which govern the tempera ture and these should be prop erly balanced for steady heat The thermostat in the room works on Air temperature it ltarts the oil burner when the room temperature falls below certain preset degree There is also control on the hot water outlet 1mm the furnace It is usually close to the furnace and is called an nquastat This con trol stops the oil burner when the water temperature reaches certain degree Idependrng on the setting of the control this control is set 430 high it may allow the radiators to be came ovehaated causing the room temperatura to rise much higher than the setting of the room thermostat This condition will cause excessive variation in room temperature Experiment with lower setting on tho aqua stat Insteady cold weather set the room thermostat is little on the high side The aquastat set ting should then be setso that the oil burnerwill come on and shut otf according to the tem erature of the water With ower setting thisuftopping and startingwill no more tre qirently andas result will keep the radiatorsvata constant tem perature and prevent them from becoming too hot When youvar rive at proper balance be tween these controls you should have satisfactory heating Of course the setting olthe aqua stat may require readiusting downward when the weather turns milder or upa little if it gets colder Temperature at night can still be controlled by the room thermostat and Mrs Halbert and larme of Toronto spent the holidays with Norman Cox worth Mrs Norman Thompson is spending some time with her
