Tankless Water Heaters
Instant, on-demand hot water
- Whenever You Want It! Tankless water heater design
means that water is heated instantly, but only for as long as
the hot water is being used. Conventional tank water heaters,
on the other hand, heat water 24 hours a day, 365 days a year
- and you pay for the energy it takes to keep the water hot.
Ironically, tanks can, and do, run out of hot water when demand
is high. How many showers does it take in your home before someone
gets a cold surprise?
Conventional heaters heat water
up to 140° F in order to make the supply of hot water last. That's
too hot for anyone to use, so cold water is added. What a waste
of energy! Tankless water heaters heat the water only to the temperature
required for use, and you can control the temperature with the
turn of a dial.
Save Energy, Save Money! - Using
energy efficiently and conscientiously reduces pollution, global
warming, and waste. Better use of energy can mean saving money
- lots of it! Tankless water heaters eliminate the need to store
hot water. Energy savings of up to 50% can be realized. |

Bamboo Flooring
The big bam-boo-m is happening!
Bamboo is quickly being recognized as one of the world’s great
eco-friendly resources and a superb flooring material. This attractive
and durable material is actually derived from a type of grass,
not a tree. Each individual plant is so resilient that harvesting
does not deter further growth. A mature plant is ready to be harvested
again after a six to eight years growing cycle, making it a very
renewable resource. Both extraordinarily beautiful as well as durable,
bamboo flooring also stands as a more inexpensive alternative to
traditional hardwood. Many bamboo floors are actually harder and
stronger than traditional hardwood like Oak. Available in different
styles and colors, this is distinctive flooring that will stand
as an attractive feature in any interior.
For a choice in styles,
you have your choice of horizontal-cut, offering wider strips,
and vertical-cut bamboo, which offers a narrow-strip look. The
horizontal-cut style also shows the distinctive growth ring or "knuckle" of
the bamboo stalk on the flooring surface. In addition to these
two traditional styles, there is also strand-woven bamboo flooring,
with its exotic surface pattern and which is even stronger and
more durable than the traditional styles. A premium bamboo floor
will add an elegant touch to your home or office, in either of
two color tones. Bamboo floors in their natural blonde color will
brighten up your living or working space. The caramel tone of the
carbonized style will add a warming influence.

The Recessed Dryer Vent Box
The Dryerbox is a simple innovative
space saving metal receptacle that installs in the wall behind
the clothes dryer in the laundry room.
The 21 inch high molded box will house and collect the flex
transition hose allowing the clothes dryer to be installed
right against the wall.
Eliminating the bends in the flex exhaust hose provides for
better, less restrictive airflow, which in turn minimizes
lint buildup, saves energy costs and reduces the serious
fire hazard caused by lint buildup.
