To.solve such prob- lems, all you need is--"cbmfort”! As your gas company knows,, comfort in- volves more than just heat. It involves humidity too. Here's how it works. Hu- midity is, the amount of moisture per cubic foot of air. When air is heated it expands, along with the moisture it contains. The result:is less moisture per cubic foot -of air—lherefore a lower relative humidity, The air becomes thirsty and draws moisture from the . surroundings including your body. When moisture evaporates from your body, it takes heat away and you feel cool. ,YouNe probably heard how you always feel cooler -in a dry climate 'than in a damp one. It's the same in your Irmo. When the humidity is re - f.1 When you wake up in the morning without.sandpaper sinuses 0-duced, you feel „cool. The family complains and you turn up the ther- mostiit and pay a bigger heat bill. Comfort is when humidity and heat .a`re properly balanced. You feel ,neither too hot nor too cold. Modern gas heating systems can give you the correct comfort level automatically, because gas heating controls humidity as well as heat. We'll help you achieve. the proper indoor climate- in your home ... and save ydu money doing it. So' call your Heating Contractor, Department Store or Gas Company.
