If you're like most people, you know you can save energy and money by heating one or two rooms not the whole house to a comfortable level with a space heater. So maybe you've been thinking about kerosene. But the truth is, kerosene has a lot of drawbacks you won't get with natural gas. In fact, the new ventless gas space heaters have kerosene heaters beat in many ways. Here are some of them: A new ventless gas heater costs a lot less for fuel.

gas burns clean, with no fuel odor. The new ventless gas room heater has an oxygen depletion safety system. A natural gas heater is safer. Natural gas is delivered automatically to your home. There's no fuel to store, lug around or spill on your floor.

And because they don't need a chimney, the new ventless gas heaters are easy to install. All it takes is a hook-up to your gas line. For more information or to find out what size heater is right for the room or rooms you want to heat, call or visit your appliance dealer or heating contractor. And you can save money now that the weather is nippy. THE NEW VENTLESS GAS SPACE HEATER.
