Sandy, the Scotsman, Says gL SEER Home Owners Choose CI ENR AT EI

“Easy on the pocketbook!” That's what thousands and thousands of Indiana home owners say about PEERLESS furnaces. Low in first cost and low in fuel consumption, these Indianapolis-made furnaces—for oil, gas, coal or coke—keep homes cozily warm in coldest weather with the absolute minimum of attention. Either with forced air or gravity circulation these furnaces have the exira capacity fo do a perfect heating job with unusual space-saving compactness and efficiency.

” -

In the past few years new and uniried companies have started fhe manufacture of furnaces. But when a company has been in business for fifty years, serving the same communities, selling the same type of equipment, that equipment must be good—and the company’s policies must be sound and fair.
