We started working with Embertec after the Regional Technical Forum (RTF) used independent field trials conducted on Embertec's tier 2 APS to establish the current two year planning measure. It has been a great addition to our Multifamily Retrofit program and feedback from our customers has been very positive. Embertec has been easy to work with and offers ongoing training and support to our installation contractors. We look forward to seeing the next generation of Embertec's technology.
