Glassboro, NJ (PRWEB) September 12, 2003
Smart VENT Inc. is proud to announce direct factory technical representation for NC, The Outer Banks, and Southeast Virginia by Mr. Gary Thomas, of Newport News, VA. Gary will be serving the NC counties of; Currituck, Camden, Pasquotank, Perquimans, Chowan, Dare and the Virginia Cities of; Virginia Beach and Chesapeake.
Gary is President of Thomas Land Surveying and will be responsible for assisting and educating Architects, Contractors, other Surveyors and homeowners in the use and installation of our Foundation Flood Vents. Gary brings vast knowledge and surveying experience to the Smart VENT group at large and has been very generous in helping to educate the whole team in the proper use and completion of FEMAÂ’s Elevation Certificate.
Gary has just finished the Smart VENT In-house training program, preparing him to assist you with any questions you may have. The code officials along the coast are now enforcing the new International Code Council Building codes. Gary is ready to explain the differences as they relate to Foundation flood vents and looks forward to becoming a cooperating partner and asset to the building community.
Gary is also certified to present our “Lunch and Learn” training session. The objective is to explain Foundation Flood vent codes and the rules that govern them. His AIA presentation is a free service, offering architects and professionals a one-hour Health Safety and Welfare Continuing Education Service (CES) credit. Call Gary directly to schedule a Lunch and Learn session in your area..
As Flood Insurance premiums rise and FEMA pushes to enforce the codes and reduce flood damage claims by reducing the hydrostatic pressure on foundations at the time of a flood event, the solution that is certified to meet all of the FEMA and Building Codes is Smart VENT.
Three models in two sizes are available. Our Duel Function (Louvered) Model # 1540-510 is designed to Mitigate floodwater while providing ventilation that automatically opens and closes with temperature. This model would be used where both ventilation and flood mitigation is required, and where cold weather could freeze pipes.
The Insulated Flood Only Model # 1540-520 is also certified to mitigate floodwater, but is insulated to protect pipes from freezing temperatures. This model would be used in a conditioned space, a garage, vestibule, or office, where ventilation is not required.
The Overhead Door Model # 1540-530 is designed to install into a garage door. It can be supplied in the Insulated Flood Only or Duel Function model. This unit would be used where there is no room for vents on an exterior wall.
Sizes include 8” x 16” covering 200 Sq/Ft per unit and 16” x 16” that covers 400 Sq/Ft per unit.
