With reference to your letter dated December 3rd, we have pleasure to enclose Drawing No. BGA. 3786 showing your Bellows Unit, No. EB.3509 as it will actually be made. Will you be good enough to examine the dimensions on this print and let us know whether you agree with them. We have marked the contracted length of the thermostat as "unimportant" as the stop is really only required to enable the bellows unit to be sent to you without damaging the bellows. As it has no bearing on the operation of the thermostat housing it is mounted in the housing. Yours truly, THE BRITISH THERMOSTAT CO.LTD. W.Martin-hurst. Director. ENCL: Drawing No. BGA. 3786.
