THE IDEAL WAY...

With Ideal Gas Domestic Boilers no effort is involved in securing a constant supply of hot water; they are entirely automatic. As soon as the required temperature has been reached, the gas supply is shut down to a self-pilot flame at each burner. These small pilot flames remain until hot water is drawn off or the temperature falls through loss of heat from the pipes, when they are returned to the "full on" condition by the action of the thermostat. A gas governor ensures the gas supply being at the correct pressure for efficient operation.

Ample clean-outs are provided for the periodical removal of lime deposit. For soft water districts the boiler can be supplied rustless.

Ideal Gas Domestic Boilers occupy little space and are attractively finished in grey mottle or white and black vitreous enamel. The boiler jacket is insulated to prevent overheating of the kitchen, a feature that will be appreciated during the summer.

These boilers can be obtained by hire purchase spread over three or four years, including free maintenance. Ask for full particulars.
