Air Condi tioning is now within every budget . . . and what a difference Air Conditioning makes! 1 .7 Many families air condition their homes by stages; buy room units for bedrooms one year and for the remainder of the homo later. Some units cool two or more rooms, depending on the room and unit size. If you are planning to build, it will cost littlo more to have year-round climate control for your entire home. It's money well spent because your family will enjoy complete comfort mid your home will be more valuable. Let's you sleep like a baby. You wake up refreshed, ready to do a day's work. And air conditioning is a real wife-saver. Take the perspiration out of such hot chores as ironing, cooking and canning. It's almost like having spring-time freshness all sum mer. Air conditioning brings welcome relief to those suffering from asthma and hay fever because it fil lers dust and pollen from the air. (This factor also makes house cleaning easier, too.) " -1 1 fi ' ' -. ..I I BUT ft v .1 2r A heat pump is particularly effective and economi cal. It maintains the samo temperature all year; heats your home in winter and cools it in summer. Although a heat pump costs more than other heat ing systems, you'll save in lower operating costs. Learn how easily you can air condition all or part of your home.
