Are you confused about home heating fuels? What with everybody
and his brother telling you how economical, convenient, quiet and
automatic his particular system is, you must feel like flying
south for the winter. But if you have to stay and face a cold, hard
winter, (like most of us) better read these cold, hard -facts.
Wood and coal are probably the most economical fuels to buy—
but they're also the least efficient.. And sooner or later you'll get '
tired of slaving over a dirty furnace—then what?
You can choose between a liquid fuel or so-called "flameless"
heating. Or natural gas. All of them claim to be the best. Who
should you believe?
Initial installation costs are higher.for liquid fuel equipment than
:for gas. A gas„ unit has fewer moving 'parts, needs less maintenance
and therefore iaS s Ionger. "Tn ord'er•'for "timeless" heating tcs
compete in operating cost, it requires extra -thick insulation
throughout the home.' "" .
If your home had extra -thick insulation, no matter what kind bf ..
heating system you use, you'd naturally cut fuel costs. With extra.
insulation or normal insulation,. a gas heating system means
lower fuel costs by far.
You never have to order natural gas—it's always there. A good,
of l-fashioped Canadian 'Snowstorm can't stop natural gas from
heating ydur home. Storms can stop trucks. They can also,kh ck
out power lines—and very often do, Unless you have your own
generator, "flameless" heating can give you the cold shoulder, just
when' you need a warm house. Let's face it—nothing is as
dependable as natural gas.
With "flameless" heating, there are nig filters to replace. There
should be. With this kind of System., there is little air circulation;
no way to prevent hot and cold "layers" of stale air from forming;
no way to remove dust' and,dirt particles from the air; no way
to control humidity., Wouldn't 3 )u. rather have a heating system
that took care of these vital functions, --even if it meant cleaning
a filter occasionally?,
When you get right down to. it, modern automatic gas heating
has the edge in just about every department. But if you're still not
convinced, maybe this will help: if you install a gas conversion
burner in yo(r existing furnace: now,. or even install a brand-new
gas.design furnace—you pay absiutely nothing until next October..
What's more, we'll spread out, the cost, of the installation in easy
monthly payments—over 5 years if need be. Unless you know
someone who'll Chop your wood for free, you won't get a letter
'deal than this—anywhere! Why not make the switch to natural
gas heating right now. TT
