Improper heating, cold
floors, dead stagnant air,
lack of warm air circula
tion are the causes of many winter-time ills.
The new Coleman Heater protects health and gives
more comfort because it has a two-way heating service.
When Heat-Reflector Doors are open, heat radiates into
a focused comfort tone. When doors art closed heat cir
culates throughout the room.
This warm air flow is 35% greater than formerly.
Floors and cornera are kept warm. Cold air layers and
atagnant dead air pockets are broken up. Huge quan
tities of freshly warmed air circulate through the house.
The temperature ia kept uniformly warm and healthful
from floor to cealing.
Protect the health of your family with a Coleman
Heater.
