Comfort the Real Problem
Now is the time cf the year to check over that
furnace is it heating every room of your, home
properly?
Remombc-r, the licnter is cinly a purl of the comfort sys
tem. Any good henler. properly installed, will givo you
all the heat you want. Temperature, really, is not the ma
jor problem in seeking home comfort. It i8 n combination
of tumporalure, humidity and ventilation. From this point
of view, and in the liisht of the University of Illinois re
search, it is safe to say that the only real comfort system
known today is the warm air system inslallod according
to the standard code.
Have us to check over your furnace, and if it docs not
come up to the standard code, we can make the necessary
changes at a small expense, so that it will give the amount
of comfort that you have a right to expect.
