A web search for the Radiant Aluminum Co. of Toronto yields zero results. The name would suggest that this was the only type of product that they offered. Such specialization has its risks. Here yesterday, gone today.
H.E.P.C. stands for the Hydro Electric Power Commission, which was created in 1905 to generate and distribute electricity cheaply to Ontarians. Apparently, it also at one time was charged with the authority to grant approval for electrical appliances sold in the province.

Apparently the company made more than the radiant heater as I have a curling iron in the original box, with same markings.Does anyone know an app year?aienary
If you'd like to send a photo of the curling iron and box, and we'd be happy to add it to this post. The more info, the better!
