Perfect Ventilation
Radiant Warmth
RADIANT warmth, just like that of the sun; perfect ventilation, an atmosphere as fresh and pleasant as that of the open air on a sunny spring morning-these the modern gas fire brings wher- over it glows. That is why doctors use and recommend gue fires; that is why they are found in hospitals, nursing homes and clinics everywhere.
Scientists have proved thal modern gas
fire warmth is like good for
sun-warmth-healthy, you, radiating beneficial infra-red
rays.
They have also proved that while the gas fire warms it provides a perfect system of ventilation..
There are no fumes from the modern gas fire. There are pro ducts of combustion, of course, as there are from any living dame. But these products immediately pass up the chimney or fluc. A. they rise they cause a gentle up- ward flow of used air from the room- system of ventilation more perfect even than that of the open window. That is why a gas-warmed room is never stuff.
