Hot Trends in Home Improvement — Enjoy the Latest Advancements in Comfort with the Affordable Luxury of Generation4™ Floor Warming Systems by Speedheat?
Atlanta, GA (ContentDesk) April 27, 2006 -- Whether fueled by the proliferation of home improvement shows or the growing popularity of design and decorating magazines, American consumers have seemingly insatiable appetites for luxury upgrades in their homes. A recent survey released by the American Institute of Architects (AIA) reported a growing desire by consumers for larger kitchens and bathrooms that are fully loaded with the latest high-end upgrades including heated floors.
While heated floors were once a luxury reserved for the rich and famous, times have changed. With recent advancements in electric radiant floor heating and quality companies such as Speedheat? now bringing fine European luxury items to the U.S., many consumers are discovering that heated tiles (as well as other flooring materials warmed to perfection) are an affordable and desirable upgrade. We have Speedheat in our living room, and we love it, says Lisa Merrion of Canton, GA. Our two little girls really enjoy sitting on the warm floor, and since we are able to warm the area where we spend the most time, we actually use less heat than before. I would love to add Speedheat to our bathroom as well because it feels so wonderful when you walk on it.
I would also recommend the product for any room where you spend a considerable amount of time, such as the playroom, nursery or living room. As Ms. Merrion has discovered, enjoying luxurious warmth in any room of the home is simple and easy with Speedheat. Their Generation4" systems can be installed in touch with virtually any flooring material placing them in a prime position to help consumers maximize this new floor warming trend.

Leaner, Meaner Air Compressors that Won?t Let You Down
The challenge of containing energy and maintenance costs while ensuring a reliable supply of available air is a prime reason why many industrial users of compressed air are turning to direct-drive electric air compressor systems.By eliminating moving parts such as belts, gears and pulleys, direct-drive rotary screw air compressors have fewer moving parts; hence, they are less likely to fail or require service or replacement parts. Fewer moving parts also mean added efficiency, which translates into energy savings. "We were frequently running out of air with our piston compressors," says Jim Cook, Construction Manager of Pick Your Part, the nation's leading self-service auto wrecker. "Now we use 25- and 30-HP direct drive units from Sullivan-Palatek to ensure that we can meet our demand for continuous and efficient air availability."With nine large yards located throughout California, Pick Your...

On Exhibition: Biocide That Improves Produce Freshness and Shelf Life at PMA Fresh Summit Tradeshow
ATLANTA, GA (ContentDesk via ContentDesk Direct) NOVEMBER 4, 2005 ?- Today at the Produce Marketing Association's Fresh Summit tradeshow, Selective Micro Technologies will showcase the extraordinary effects of the company's Selectrocide chlorine dioxide biocide on produce.

Background Information Chlorine Dioxide and Selectrocide:Chlorine dioxide is effective at low concentrations across a wide range of pH (roughly 4 to 10), and, because it is a gas in its natural state, dissipates...
