It's pure and simple Electric heat is the clean, modern heat—no flame, no fumes. It's a snap to install—costs less, too—because it's more compact and needs no flue. And only electric heat is 100% efficient; the heat is created right where it's used. It's also economical. You can buy an attractive, low-operating-cost unit for as little as $35-$40 (plus thermostat and installation). And we're talking about a unit that can turn a 12' x 20' polar region into a tropical delight. Just dial the warmth you want, and you get it. Give us a call. We'll send an Edison Heating Specialist to discuss equipment, installation, and operating cost with you. No obligation, of course. EDISON 341-0533 (305) JE 1-0061
