Interior Energy Efficient Window Insulators - TRANE
strategic supplier
Our product will soon be offered by the largest
maker of roller blinds in the world! We would like you to consider offering your
customers truly energy efficient window insulators, roller blinds, vertical
blinds, or sliders. At the same time, we would like you to be a supplier or
distributor at dealers cost by adding another product line for your customers to
consider! In'Flector Window Insulators can make a single pane glass window more
efficient than a low e or double pane argon gas filler window! Our window
insulators are pure science at work and have been tested by Texas A&M,
Ortech Laboratories, Yellot Solar Laboratories, and Scanada. You can view the
numerous scientific lab reports detailing the unique energy winter and summer
attributes not found in other applications. I know we can provide an effective
product for your customers like we have for numerous others like General Motors
and the U.S. Army! The National Fenestration Rating Council just approved our
product for a seperate category to be rated very soon since our product is so
unique and an interior energy efficient window insulator.
Here is our web site:
Here is a top Canadian dealer and his site has
some pictures of rollers and vertical applications:

Hamptons Luxury Homes Announces the Certified Green Professional Designation Earned by Two Telemark Professionals
July 14, 2008 8:30 AM ET
Hamptons Luxury Homes HLXH today announced that two employees of its wholly owned subsidiary, Telemark, Inc., have been awarded the Certified Green Professional designation from the National Association of Home Builders. Tim Dalene and Robert Morsch, both of Telemark, Inc. have completed the educational requirements and have been notified by the The NAHB University of Housing in Washington, DC that they have been approved for graduation.
“We are very proud of this accomplishment by Tim and Bob,” said Roy Dalene, president of Hamptons Luxury Homes. “They are both very much involved in our Hamptons Green Alliance program and as such this designation reinforces our commitment to supporting and encouraging green building practices.”
The National Association of Home Builders describes its designation in this way: the “Certified Green Professional designation recognizes builders, remodelers and other industry professionals who incorporate green building principles into homes – without driving up the cost of construction. Class work leading to the designation provides a solid background in green building methods, as well as the tools to reach consumers, from the organization leading the change to provide market-driven green building solutions to the home building industry.”
Frank Dalene, president of Telemark, Inc. said: “Telemark and Hamptons Luxury Homes have been committed to green building for many years – even before it became as popular as it is today. As a result, we have also been instrumental in bringing others in our industry together to form the Hamptons Green Alliance to further educate the consumer as well as provide a forum for members of the building and renovation industry in the Hamptons to come together and share information.”
Hamptons Luxury Homes (www.hlxhomes.com) is a regional construction services company that builds and maintains custom homes, luxury vacation homes and ultra-luxury estate homes throughout the eastern end of Long Island, New York, with its principal offices located in Bridgehampton, New York. The Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Telemark Inc. is a nationally recognized and award winning ultra-luxury homebuilder. The Company maintains an industry leading reputation for construction of luxury vacation homes from foundation to completion, with values ranging up to $60 million. Hamptons Luxury Homes combines ultra-high quality materials with superb old-world craftsmanship to create the ultimate in luxury homes with outstanding aesthetic appeal.
