Last class of the year!
Colder than normal temperatures and lots of snow & ice -- it's keeping the HVAC/R guys in our territory busy!
Thank You For Serving....

We have an amazing territory to call home......
Inspecting several LG outdoor units on top of a building roof in Beaverton, Oregon. The contractor was looking for feedback on the project.
This was a nice light commercial application with eight outdoor and eight indoor LG units.
BOSS 813 Firestop Foam is a one part expanding foam designed for use in residential and commercial construction as a firestop. It has passed the strict UL 1479 test and has UL Systems available.
Three products were put into a weatherometer to simulate a lifetime of exposure to the elements. Only BOSS 125 showed no signs of chalking, cracking, or yellowing.
To all those who made the ultimate sacrifice, or served in any way, thank you from Build Products Northwest!

You'll see how this proactive approach to air purification destroys microbes and gases at the source without the pollutants having to travel passed or through the HVAC unit.
Guardian Air / REME In-duct Air Purifiers
- Kills 99% of Bacteria, Viruses and Mold ( Surface and Airborne)
- Kills 85% of Gases and Odors
- Approved by EPA
Used by US Government, schools, hospitals, nursing home, cruise ships, restaurant chains, daycare centers, commercial buildings and residential homes
Poor Indoor Air Quality Can Threaten Your Health
Most people spend over 90% of their time indoors, not knowing that the air they are breathing may be more polluted than the air outside. The Environmental Protection Agency has reported that indoor air pollution levels can be 100 times higher than the air outdoors.we should use Air Cleaner or Air Filter to Purify our Air.
Breathing contaminated air puts the health of you and your family at risk. In fact, the American College of Allergist says that 50% of illnesses are caused or aggravated by polluted indoor air. So take control of your indoor air quality by reducing pollutants that can contribute to headache, lung irritation and fatigue as well as more long-term conditions such as asthma, allergies and infectious diseases.

Class going well.... Brazing ring demo was a big hit!
LucasMilhaupt supplied Sil Fos....
Testing 3 to find the best!
I was told that once frozen the BOSS 362 did not perform as well as the competition.
So, we decided to try it and see what happened. In my opinion, it was the complete opposite - The BOSS performed the best of our three sampled caulks.
We froze three different adhesives overnight, let them thaw out and then tried each sample all under the same conditions.
The BOSS 362 product performed way better in my opinion than the other two. Not only did it spread easy, but it also spread thicker and looked a brighter white. It was by far the best.
Safeflex expansion joints are molded and vulcanized in hydraulic presses. This high pressure process produces a smooth finished product with outstanding adhesion between the cover, reinforcement and tube.
Most of our competitors still use Natural Rubber impregnated Nylon tire cord between sulfur cured, EPDM covers and tubes. This construction becomes brittle with age at higher temperatures, so we changed from Nylon to Kevlar®, as Kevlar® has a higher modulus that minimizes swell and elongation, and outstanding temperature tolerance up to 250°F (121°C).
IN BRIEF, SAFEFLEX IS SAFE BECAUSE...
• All Safeflex Expansion Joints are factory tested to 150% of rated pressure before shipment.
• Kevlar® high temperature tolerance is outstanding.
• Peroxide cured EPDM covers and tubes with Kevlar reinforce ment are superior to sulfur cured EPDM, Natural Rubber, and Neoprene Nylon reinforced bodies at all temperatures.
• Kevlar® reinforcement wrapped around solid steel rings cannot pull through the flanges.
• Sealing pressure is higher using external stops as rotation points.

Quitting a good job in a bad economy & starting a new business might not have been the best idea - But 2 1/2 years later, it’s looking like a pretty good idea.
Very few people helped or even offered to help us when we needed it most and that makes it feel like an even bigger accomplishment. And now that it’s going very well and we’re doing great, it’s easier to look back & say “WOW” as we see what has transpired. But those that did help, made the difference for us. Whether it was advice, giving us a meeting, recommending us to others or whatever time they took to offer help or support it made a difference.
One Great Example That Stands Out:
When we started the new company, without any prompting Jeffrey Gitomer - who I had worked closely with in the past - offered to make a video for us to promote our company. He didn’t ask for any input or anything in return, he just asked for a copy of our logo…… What he did for us was special and helped to launch us off the ground. I don’t know if it helped us get any business or pick up any new lines - but what I do know is it made us feel good and it made us feel like we did the right thing. And, at that time - our lowest point - we needed some confidence and encouragement and his video gave us that!
To the others that believed in us and took a chance on our company - we will forever be appreciative. We can’t thank them enough. They were awesome!
Because we know how important it was for us, we continue to help others even when it doesn’t benefit us. We think that what goes around comes around and we think even though it may not create sales it creates good business.
What things are you doing to help others? How are you making a difference?
