	Friday Fax A Weekly Summary of Polywater^® News of Incredible Importance

Issue #700

A great suggestion came out of Polywater's group meeting at the NEMRA National Conference in San Diego last February: present FST Foam to the IAEI as the best option for NEC duct sealing code compliance. The idea was to have the local Polywater agent present to each state chapter of the International Association of Electrical Inspectors within their territory.

John Hastie of Holbrook Associated in New England took this idea seriously. Writing later to Wade LeVander, Polywater's Eastern Regional Sales Manager, John requested assistance for his plan of action:

"Wade, I am doing a presentation on February 29th to the Western Mass chapter of the IAEI. I am going to have the FST product as one of my topics. Can I get a sample of an FST-250 kit and an RTV-10 sample to present? I will have copies of the FST PowerPoint product presentation to hand out along with some literature on other APC products, including the new Clear RTV product. If there is any other info or lit that you think we should have there, please include along with samples. There are usually 20 to 50 inspectors and contractors at this event. Thanks, John."

This prompted Wade to comment, "That Hastie no wastie no time!"

For those of you who share John's bold, git-r-done style, know that Polywater has a number of support items it can offer for such presentations, including this bulletin on FST Foam & NEC Code Compliance.

Grab the initiative. Secure your materials, set your appointment, and make FST history.
