Detection of a \\mu-type distortion (saturated comptonization) in the CMB will constrain the time of energy injection to be at a redshift 2x10^6> z > 2x10^5, while a detection of a y-type distortion (minimal comptonization) will mean that there was heating of CMB at redshift z< 1.5x10^4. We point out that the partially comptonized spectral distortions, generated in the redshift range 1.5x10^4 < z x 2x10^5, are much richer in information than the pure y and \\mu-type distortions.
