From the vantage point of the early 21st century, the evolution of oil fired, automatic home heating equipment would be seen as generally advancing in four broad waves, each of which would take place over a considerable period of time, each producing many variations of the genre:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tuthill would be widely acknowledged in the industry as an early innovator in the field, providing many of the engineering ideas, principles, products and breakthroughs which the industry would build on \u2013 see for example ID#271, 272, 273.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
