For hours of showers and chores
by the score, nothing can beat a
flameless electric water heater.
Hot water for everything! Dishes. .Clothes.
Small, grimy boys. Dating-age daughters
who love showers and beauty baths and
squeaky-clean shampoos. Nobody waits. And
nobody skimps.
Hot water comes from the tap quicker be
cause pipe runs are shorter. With a tlameless
electric water heater there’s no need for a
flue. Nestles neatly near the spot where you
use the most hot water.
This faithful helper serves you in a clean,
quiet, fumeless fashion.
Did we say nothing beats an electric water
heater? Well. Old Faithful does produce more
hot water. But geysers are messy to have
around the house. And they may rumble.
Besides, where can you buy a geyser for as
little as your water heater will cost?
