Claims: I claim:

1. A device for injecting air processed to increase its humidity into oil burning furnaces comprising:

a. a water container dimensioned to receive and contain water received from a water line;

b. an atmospheric line leading from the atmosphere into said water container, at a location below the level of water within said container;

c. first means for drawing and bubbling atmospheric air through the water container, to process the air by increasing its humidity;

d. means for inductively sensing whether a motor in said oil burning furnace is energized;

e. a blower connected to said atmospheric line; and

f. means for stopping and starting said blower connected to said atmospheric line, said means for stopping and starting said blower being connected to and being energizable by said inductive means.

2. A device for injecting air processed to increase its humidity into oil burning furnaces comprising:

a. a water container dimensioned to receive and contain water received from a water line;

b. an atmospheric line leading from the atmosphere into said water container, at a location below the level of water within said container;

c. first means for drawing and bubbling atmospheric air through the water container, to process the air by increasing its humidity, by harnessing the natural draft of the combustion zone in the furnace, and then conveying said processed air to the combustion zone, including a combustion line leading from the uppermost portion of the water container to a base of the flame in a combustion zone; and

d. means for introducing hydrogen peroxide into water in said water container.
