Customers and Employees of The Specialty Shop
now enjoy air-conditioned comfort the year ’round
In Texas, today, many business and
professional men are no longer
bothered by summer’s scorching
heat. No matter how high the tem-
perature rises outside, their places
of business are cool and comfortable
for the benefit of their customers
and employees. These are business
and professional people, like the
owner of The Specialty Shop, who
have Servel All-Year Gas Air Con-
ditioning installed in their places of
business.
COOLS IN SUMMER, WARMS IN WINTER
When the days get warm, they
simply flip a switch and the Servel
unit immediately floods their
establishment with refreshingly
cooled, dehumidified air. Servel
also filters out practically all irri-
tating dust, dirt, and pollen, too.
Pollen asthma and hay fever vic-
tims enjoy welcome relief.
*
When winter arrives, again at the
flip of a switch, the same Servel
unit supplies plenty of clean, even
warmth. Just the right amount of
moisture is added to the warmed
air for comfort. There are never
any drafts, never any chilling “lay-
ers” of hot and cold air. In between
seasons, when neither heating nor
cooling is needed, the Servel sys-
tem circulates clean air at prevail-
ing outdoor temperatures.
