totally fraudulant!!!


It's a bit like these miracle weight loss devices/pills: They always add
in
small font "along with a healthy diet and exercise", which of course is
where
the weight loss comes from.

Most of the major companies marketing these heaters are careful to say
that the
energy savings comes from switching from whole house heating to spot
heating,
while implying that there is something special about their spot heater.


Of course, don't forget the phrase in tiny tiny print, or uttered inaudibly,

"RESULTS MAY VARY."
