SUPPLY OF HOT WATER IS VITAL DURING SUMMER WASHINGTON, July 3.—An ade- | quate supply of hot water, available at the turn of a faucet; is just as| necessary to the family during the Summer months when the maln heating plant is turned off as it! is during the Winter, FHA officials say. A separate hot-water heater, or cne that will function without put- ting in operation the entire heat- ing system, is no longer regarded as a luxury, and many of this type are available for modern small homes. Hot-water heaters may be in- stalled with funds obtained from qualified lending institutions under the Modernization Credit Plan of the Federal Housing Administration The two general classifications as applied by the FHA to the many types of heaters are “direct” and “indirect.” 1In the direct type the unit is devoted entirely to the heat- ing of hot water, while in the indi rect type the hot water is a by product of the regular heating plant. Direct heaters can be obtained in types such as automatic units re- quiring tanks, automatic units requir ctora’~ tanks, and non-aul matic units requiring storage tanks In the indirect type ho-lers a special coil is built into either a hot-water sor stem boiler through which the water is passed and piped to a storflge tnnk Seattle Womx Is House Guest Of Joe Werners Miss Evelyn Swanson of Seattle arrived in Juneau yesterday morn- ing to visit here for two weeks.
