Personalized Warmth"
When there are children in the family, a "personalized"
form of heating is invaluable. The portable electric heater
is especially designed to warm a small area, and that area.
thoroughly. As children are very "close to the floor," and
do much of their playing on the floor itself, an electric
heater placed nearby will keep them safely warm and
guard them against colds.
Throughout the winter months, and during all seasons of
cold, damp weather, you-will find these heaters very useful
and comforting. They are excellent for quickly heating the
bathroom on chilly mornings. Simply plug into any wall
outlet, and they respond instantly with satisfying warmth.
