If your boiler is still consuming coal or coke, it demands some- one's constant attention.

Someone has to shovel tons of fuel, remove ashes, which means increased expenditure. In addition someone has to spend extra time keeping things clean - further expense that could be saved.

A building that is either too hot or too cold affects both health, temperament and efficiency.

The "Electromatie" fully automatic Oil Burner is in reality automatic weather. It provides an even heat at whatever tempera. ture you choose, which is maintained automatically, day and night, summer and winter. It starts itself, runs itself and stops itself as though a man stood controlling it for 24 hours a day.

It is absolutely safe and reliable, clean and economical; it means that all your heating and hot water problems have now ceased to exist. The "Electromatic" Oil Burner deals with them all efficiently and consistently.

If you are experiencing trouble with either central heating or domestic hot water installations, let us tell you what it will cost to change over to fuel oil, and further, what it will cost to run.

If you are installing new plants don't decide on solid fuel until you have seen the “Electromatic” in operation.
