AN electric ventilator for supplying a
building with fresh air, either cold or
warmed, hsgdesired, is so arranged that
the electric" motor sets the ventilator
revolving, which sucks cool air in.
When warm air is desired, current is
sent into network of fine wire pos
sessing high resistance, and through
the network the air is obliged to pass;
the current heats the wires and the air
becomes heated The movement of a

that the hygienic results are good.
