" Let's talk about the specifics of how the system works OK Bob this is rich McNally from chemists want pay rich problem. Who is the rep Bob. He Gloria products and in this case we're using -- and -- tubing which what you explain to Bob how this works cherry it's hydronic in floor radiant tubing. It's manufactured. Hi tech Robert till it's not just the."
" And rubber boats and no sir. It's actually multiple layered products and in on the inside we have he tedium robber. For high temperature high pressure application. And a layer of aluminum. To prevent oxygen permeate. -- into the heating medium. And then we haven't Aaron -- court's view and tons horrible strength so it's a high tech little post now that he medium is it water. Yes it is so it's not that it is there any -- mixed in with water is -- just plain water that's an option in this case I believe -- be any -- so -- an option."
" OK and then that. What are the mechanics of installing -- just put this stuff right down over that are reinforcing granite yes tying it down here. -- this will become an -- part of the slab as the slab is poured over the wire in the tube. The guys election be pulling wire in the tube up into the slab so that it sits somewhere in the middle of it okay. And then the whole. The whole production ends up over here on the other side of the building correct that's right. This is the start determination point of each of these for all -- tubing. We call them manifold area indeed the boiler is gonna be in this area so we wanna start exterminate here -- the boiler is. Obviously it's a modern piece of equipment but will it be a pretty standard -- with. Well it's a high tech type four -- manufactured by any energy kinetics -- system 2000 and current perhaps. Two thirds of the you have fuel than any other part of the world would be burning that's a very very quiet system very dependable world -- and we don't need a chimney with Iraq -- You don't need a chimney and in this type of structure I don't think you'd. Want to see some sort of a -- chimney coming out of eighteenth century. It structures -- eighteenth century but it is a post in Maryland you're absolutely writing sentry here. -- has this technology been around a long time are we re looking -- of its very renewed. Well this particular product is the latest revision of the technology that's been around for a quite quite a long terrific. OK we'll general thanks for coming out of can't wait -- we have -- off finished."
