ADA verses Aging in Place.

Posted on September 26, 2011 by admintrc

Well, This weekend I was able to attend a professional representative annual meeting in Chicago and was able to learn from a code maker.
There is so much confusion about what National codes are enforced for ADA building and I know know exactly what is and is NOT true.

In the coming days I will try to post highlights from the 3 plus hour presentation from Mr.Julius Ballanco, P.E., CPD, FASPE. He sits on the National board which creates the ICC codes and UBC codes. To put it mildly he wrote the book.

Locally, I will be happy to give a great and complete presentation. Just call my office (831)429-9506 and we can schedule.

Feb is booked so if you want to schedule there are two weeks open in March 2012. Call soon .

Made in the USA or Green?

Posted on May 24, 2011 by admintrc

Well a spirited discussion in a plumbing group with weather it is more important to buyers that a product be “Made in the USA” or a “Green” product.

Clearly it seems that nationwide it that it is “Made in the USA”. Interesting in that both Colonial Bronze and Water Decor are made in the USA and they are the most “Green” product I can find. Both enable builders to achieve LEED points.

Made in the USA

Posted on March 17, 2011 by admintrc

Made in the USA is more than a buzz phrase it is imperative that we as a nation get to the business of buying and employing Americans. This starts today and with everything you buy.

We have made a 10 year effort to represent products which are made in the USA. We have been somewhat successful.

Americh is made in California 100%
Colonial Bronze is 100% made in the USA and they are Green (LEEDS) certified.
Water Decor faucets are made in the USA (German Cartridges only)
ACO Channel Drains are made in the USA 50% (Channel made in USA,Grates made in Germany)

We will continue to proudly represent quality produces from the best sources but we ask you to help us represent more “Made in the USA” products. If you see a product which is made here in the USA I want represent them. Please Help us work these products and let us all recover our economy.
