Book excerpt: Excerpt from Central Station Heating: Its Economic Features With Reference to Community Service These differences represent charges against dirt, smoke, and ex cess labor. In other words, they are a contribution to cleanliness and convenience. Taking the Illinois coal at $1 a ton, with a heat value of B. T. U. And 49 per cent average efficiency, the cost of energizing a square foot of radiation for one hundred and eighty 24-hour days will be slightly higher than for the central station mentioned above, at which the overall efficiency of generation and distribution was taken at 50 per cent. The fuel costs for the heat are therefore about the same, whether furnished by the private plant or from a central station with the same coal at the same price.
