_ WATER HEATER FOR KITCHEN—No more out of place in the kitchen than an ordinary refrigerator, the new Toastmaster de luxe automatic electric water heater is designed for kitchen or utility room installation. The de luxe model is an answer to an increasing demand for a largncapscily water heater for basementless homes, where modern dish-washing and laundry equipment may cal’

SPACE SAVER—Smaller capacity Toastmaster de luxe automatic electric water heater may be installed in kitchen or utility rooms at no sacrifice of space. Standard tabletop height permits use of the water heater as additional working surface when installed in kitchen cabinet area.

way. Mr. Osterheld built his first model in his garage out of .a range boiler and a series of crudely assembled, wire-wound percelain blocks.

The first operating model was not much to look at, but it was effective. It heated water efficiently and it didn’t take Mr. Osterheld long to discover that “lime” (boiler scale) didn't form inside the tank. The heat was distributed evenly over a wide area—through the surface of the tank. Lime formed

.only above 178 degrees. Thermo-

statically controlled below that critical point, scale never formed: inside the tank walls.

Blocks Control Wattage

Today's modern, functional Toastmaster deluxe water heater still retains that same fundamental principle. The now-famous “Life-Belt” element, is made up of a series of white porcelain element blocks, cut with scien{tifically accurate precision to jaccommodate the finest nickelchromium resistance ‘wire.

Secondly, if a single elementblock needs replacing or servicing | for any reason, it may be removed and replaced quickly and easily— without draining the tank. |

Careful maintenance of the| original heating method has] proved worthwhile. Many installations of 25 years or more ago are still in daily operation.

Cleaning Exterio

The smooth porcelain enamel exterior of your washer is easily kept clean by going over it with a damp cloth. The surface should be kept free of soap and suds| which might drip onto it in use.
