Now is the time of the year to check over that
furnace is it heating every room of your home
properly?
Remember, the heater is only a part of the comfort sys
' tem. Any Kood heater, properly installed, will give you
all the heut you want. Temperature, really, is not the ma
jor problem in seeking home comfort. It is a combination
of temperature, humidity and ventilation. From this point
of view, and in the light of the University of Illinois re
search, it is sale to say that the only real comfort system
""'known -today is the warm air system installed according
""to ) the standard code.
jHave us to check over your furnace, and if it does not
come up to the standard code, we can make the necessary
changes at a small expense, so that it will give the amount
vrvof comfort that you have a right to expect.
