does anyone know where I can find a copy of Frank Gerety's book (online or hardcopy):



Gerety, Frank. <strong><em>How to Get the Best From One-Pipe Steam</em></strong>. New York: NYC Department of Housing Preservation and Development, 1987 (New York: City Books (1987), 1 Centre Street, Rm 2223, New York, NY 10007.)



Amazon shows it as "limited availability" <a href="http://www.amazon.com/How-get-best-one-pipe-steam/dp/B00072QSDE">http://www.amazon.com/How-get-best-one-pipe-steam/dp/B00072QSDE</a>



FYI .. I did find this very interesting paper:

<a href="http://www.osti.gov/bridge/servlets/purl/10191625-8qJZ5M/webviewable/10191625.pdf">ENERGY SAVINGS IN ONE-PIPE STEAM HEATING SYSTEMS FITTED WITH HIGH-CAPACITY AIR VENTS Prepared for

THE NEW YORK STATE ENERGY RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY - September 1994</a>



.. oh it looks like this may have already been in The Wall archives .. but without a link to the document .. here is the old Wall thread: <a href="http://www.heatinghelp.com/forum-thread/124247/Interesting-NY-research-study-on-venting-one-pipe-steam-systems">http://www.heatinghelp.com/forum-thread/124247/Interesting-NY-research-study-on-venting-one-pipe-steam-systems</a>
