This ' - advantage, together with the scientifically propor- - v v tloned air passages enables the Caloric to gen- " erat and distribute the greatest volume of warm air front the fuel oonsumed. , The .Calorie, Healrewlate The Air The fact has ; , been established that a heat loss of approximately 1 66 Is caused In bringing outside air from a tem , . . perature of sero to 70 degrees. The Calorlo great ly reduces tills percentage of loss because It ellm- ; . ' r " Inates the necessity of outside air. The Calorlo principle of heating Is based upon ' the recirculation of air currents and by proper ap plication of this principle It can operate at a groat '. . , .. saving In fuel. - a . ..
