June 2012 - Portland, Oregon
To use:
- Clean the areas to be brazed using a wire brush or abrasive paper
- Insert ring into fitting and insert tube - make sure tube makes contact with ring at bottom
- Uniformly heat of braze area - Alloy is drawn by capillary action to top of joint providing visual verification of sound braze joint
The Glasfloss Z-Line Series ZXP and HXP self-supported pleated filters offer MERV 8 efficiency with superior durability and low pressure drop. The Z-Line Series features a uniform 100% synthetic, self-supporting media design that achieves a MERV 8 per the ANSI/ASHRAE 52.2 Test Standard.
The Z-Line pleated filters are 100% incinerable since there are no metal parts used within the construction. The Z-Line ZXP and HXP incorporate exclusive double wall internal torsion box technology. The pleated filters can withstand greater abuse in shipping and handling due to the absence of metal component parts as well as the durable self-supporting filtration design.
The Z-Line self-supporting pleated filters offer excellent performance and value for a large array of applications. The Z-Line ZXP and HXP filters are environmentally friendly and have less impact on landfills.

According to a new report from Pacific Northwest National Lab, commercial building owners could save an average 38 percent on their heating and cooling bills just by installing a few new controls onto their HVAC systems.
Supreme Industries announces the industry's first and only foil tape dispenser. Through the use of a secondary take up reel, The Tape Master removes the paper release liner and applies tape in a smooth application every time. This patented tool saves time, increases production and cuts expensive labor costs.
We saw lots of great products & had the opportunity to meet with some great companies.
Damien & I are off to chilly Alaska - great contractor training & distributor visits planned this week.
Have you had your HVAC inspected by a professional? It could save you lots of money & headaches!
The Antex Pipemaster Pro is designed to provide a clean and safe solution for making soldered joints of copper pipes.
The tool does not require any special fittings just standard presoldered or non-presoldered copper joints.
The Pro Tool has more than twice the power with Temperature Control of our DIY tool, the Pro with clean heads and good contact can make 1/2 joints in under 10secs. The temperature of the heads is maintained around 950 F, this enables the user to make more joints quickly and efficiently, whilst being safe and without the worry of a Naked Flame.
The advantage off temperature control is that less heat is applied to the joint, this prevents the heat build up in the pipes. The heat build up can make disassembly of systems hard work because the pipe expands into the joint, the Pro prevents the heat build up making disassembly easy. The other advantage using the temperature controlled version and preventing heat build up, is when you are using freezing tool to block the fluid flow. The lower heat build allows the user to make the joint closer to the frozen section of the pipe.
The unit is also suitable for the professional who has to make a joint but where the flame could cause more damage. (under counter tops, along skirting boards etc).
