Wow, end of the year allready!

It has been a whirlwind this past couple of months here at Inov8, and there are so many projects to talk about. A lot of time was spent conversing with the new owners and contractors involved installing and maintaining these new systems. Our customers have been very cooperative and the staff here at Inov8 unyielding.

These are some unique projects that we have taken on since my last posting. This is not a complete list, so please don't feel bad if you don't see your project on here, perhaps it is because it is similar to others.

* Waste Oil Recyclers, Modena PA. - Purchased a furnace to heat there facilitiy using vegetable oil collected for recycling, as fuel.
* Total Automotive, Bramton, Ontario - They are the first owners of our lates innovation, the dual fuel F240 furnace. The furnace is Inov8's "bread and Butter," and with this new burner, it is sure to be turning some heads. It has the capability of using either natural gas or propane or a waste oil product. They have it set up to burn waste auto oils and the propane as a back up. The world's first; Very cool. You'll see plenty more on the product line very soon.
* Alchemy Construction, Arcata, CA. - Stephen is installing one of our Viessman systems at a biofuel center. They will be using various vegetable oils and the bi-product "glycerine" to fuel the boiler for process heat.
* D-N-P Siteworks, Colebrook, NH. - I wanted to mention this one because David is a return customer, installing his second vegetable oil boiler system. Great Job!
* Harvest House Bakery, Brick, New Jersey - Talk about innovation. These guys are in the process of testing these burners to use them on industrial baking ovens, using recycled vegetable oil as fuel.
* Energy Wall, Yellowknife, Northwest Territories - This is way cool, and normally I wouldn't mention a typical waste oil boiler installation on this portion but it's so neat, I want to share. Manuel is so far up there that it would cost him over $300 per day to heat his facility conventionally. He has been a great customer of ours for many years and has told me personally that his survival depends on his burner working properly. Do to expansion, he has just purchased a third unit from us and is spreading the good word to others in his area.

I would like to write longer, but I have a choir concert to get to. I do want to mention real quick that I am very excited to say that we are close on the vegetable oil water heater product line. It is fully developed and we are going to be placing 5 units into service in the Midwest over the course of the next two months. This will give us time to reevaluate the sales process, iron out any installation oversights, collect data and gain refferals. I am looking forward to a full blown launch this spring, with a debute this March at the Wisconsin Restaurant Associations tradeshow.

If you've got a great idea, give me a call. 608-785-2879. It seams like whenever I think I've scene it all, someone calls in and makes me slap my head saying, "why didn't I think of that?" There are so many great ways to use this technology. I wonder what lies ahead this coming year. I'll do my best to keep you posted.
