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.

All you need to know about RGF’s proactive approach to Indoor Air Purification with the Guardian Air PHI and REME technologies. 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.
Used by US Government, schools, hospitals, nursing home, cruise ships, restaurant chains, daycare centers, commercial buildings and residential homes
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....
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.
