Handy Hotbed Can Be Made Outside Basement Window
Most economical hot-bed in space, cost and upkeep, is built around a window opening from a heated basement, preferably a south window. In front of the window make a shallow excavation, about a foot deep. The size must be figured carefully, so that a frame set in this excavation can be covered by window or hot-bed sash. As in the case of other hot-beds, a glass substitute may be used on the sash, if desired.
Build a frame to fit in the excavation. The sides must slant sharply from a point above the window, almost to the ground. Fit the sash on this frame, using hinges at the top so the sash may easily be raised for ventilation. Earth may be banked around the frame to keep out the cold; and the sides should be as tight as possible to keep out the wind.
The frame may have to be caulked, where it joins the foundation to prevent drafts, otherwise it is built like the garden type, using a standard or odd size sash as you choose.
Heat is supplied to this bed by opening the basement window, and allowing the heated basement air to enter the bed. The window is left open at night, and may often be closed during the day, when the sun is shining on the bed. Hot-beds of this type have been tried and tested, and although they do not maintain temperatures as high as other kinds the heat will be more even, and the ventilation much better.
The main things to watch are temperature and drafts. Ventilation is necessary on warm days, and for very short periods on cooler days.
