How appropriate that at this spooky time of year
our meeting topic is FOG, oh wait not the
spooky kind of FOG associated with Halloween
but rather the scary kind if overlooked in the
design and application of interceptors.
This month we will have Mr. Ben Eichler
Applications Engineer with Zurn Industries in to
talk about interceptors. The presentation will
cover everything from the design of the
interceptor to installation considerations and
even maintenance and troubleshooting.
Last month’s presentation regarding Legionella
by Karrie Bontrager from Lawhon Associates
was extremely informative and by the many
comments I have heard was very well received.
I have the presentation from Karrie for those
that would like a copy, please drop me a quick
note via e-mail and I will send it out right away.
The upcoming program year looks to be an
exciting one and I hope that everyone is
enjoying the variety of technical topics we are
covering. I would love to hear from you our
members on any specific topics you would like
to see covered please drop me an e-mail to
[email protected] or call me at 614 3976697.
