Marathon International Technical Support Department is implementing a program to record each technical concern that arises in the field.  The new program will allow for a Baxi Service case to be associated with each installation.  The Service Case will allow for the review of service call history and provide the ability to track site specific concerns.

In order to implement this program, there is certain information that will now be required when phoning technical support:

In our quest for continued education, Kliman Sales attended a two day intensive training at Marathon International, the North American distributor for Baxi wall hung boilers, located in Toronto Canada.

Seattle Housing Authority has announced their affordable housing units, furnished with Baxi Luna combination heating and domenstic hot water boilers, are using 37% less fuel than houses in a similar Seattle housing redevelopment project using a different hydronic heating solution. An independent study shows the Housing Authority will enjoy continued fuel consumption and utility bill savings as utility rates increase. In addition, return on investment will continue to grow after deducting new conservation incentives offered by utility and government agencies.

Baxi now offers chemical water treatment products from Sentinel, designed to clean, protect, and prolong the life of residnetial hydronic heating solutions.                            

A leading European water treatment specialist, Sentinel cleaning and inhibitor concentrates eliminate the risk of premature wear of a boiler's heat exchanger, valves, pump and pipe work.  Sentinel products can also save radiators that are clogged wtih scale and black magnetite sludge, and allow a system to operate at optimum efficiency levels.

BAXI, known for high efficiency and eco-friendly products, announces that independent testing shows Baxi boilers are fully compliant with California's AB1953 no lead legislation. The law requires that surfaces in contact with potable water are not to exceed a lead content on 0.25% of the wetted surface.

Kliman Sales was there in force! After overcoming set up on the hottest day of the year, everyone cooled off and turned their focus to the crowd. The turn out was good, much like last year. An evening full of new and old connections.
