Construction Marketplace 6 1 Thursday, January 11, 2018 Industry, California, dedicated to deliver- ing the finest quality professional style cooking appliances. Our parent company is a grill manufacturing giant; we have continued that successful culture with the following mission: bringing to the aver- age household that which was previously only available to the ultra-rich. Or as we like to say, 'affordable luxury.' CM: What do you sell? SH: Our flagship is the NXR Range, a beautiful professional style range that has been reviewed to perform better than major brands at a fraction of the cost. We also launched new lines, including the NXR Entrée, NXR Elite and NXR Pro. We also have a variety of stainless steel BBQ grills, pizza ovens and tool chests, and we are in the works to introduce a line of NXR kitchen appliances. CM: What would you say makes Duro unique? SH: Even though we are an American company, our parts, such as our German NXR (Cont'd. from p. 1) burners, are sourced from all over the world and assembled in China in our own factories, and we have our own service center in California – making us a truly global company. We are committed to excellence with our unbelievable price point. CM: What exactly is 'affordable luxu- ry'? SH: Luxury typically is associated with an extravagant lifestyle, and for kitchens that means professional style appliances that are out of reach for most families. We believe in providing access to well-designed products that exude luxury in both form and function. CM: Where can customers find an NXR Range? SH: We currently serve distributors across the U.S. as well as big box compa- nies, such as Costco, Sam's Club and Home Depot.

These fixtures included 3.5 GPF toilets, 2.5 GPM showerheads and 2.5 GPM aerators. With some of the highest water and sewer rates in the country, the opportunity to save both water and money was clear. Installation of Niagara's UHET™ Water-Saving Kits The Reserve at Stone Creek worked with the Apartment Water Management Company LLC (AWMC) and the DeKalb County Watershed Department to replace outdated, inefficient fixtures. AWMC decided to install Niagara's Ultra-High- Efficiency-Technology (UHET) Water- Saving Kits, which they use on all their projects. When asked why they do, a managing member at AWMC said, "I'm all about saving money for my clients. Niagara seems to lead the way in effi- ciency, so we use Niagara!" AWMC installed Niagara's UHET Water-Saving Kits that included the EPA WaterSense ® labeled Original Stealth – 0.8 GPF Single Flush Toilet, Earth 1.5 GPM shower- heads, and 1.0 GPM aerators, along with water supply lines and wax rings. The DeKalb County Watershed Department helped in the implementation and com- pletion of the water conservation efforts. The Original Stealth toilet is the most efficient – 37.5 percent more effi- cient than "high-efficiency" toilets. The high-efficiency, high-powered Earth Showerhead uses up to 40 percent less Niagara (Cont'd. from p. 1) water than other "low-flow" shower- heads while the kitchen and bathroom aerators complete the water-saving kit that is backed by a 10-year warranty. Water-Saving Results The savings were significant. The bath- room retrofit, in conjunction with addi- tional conservation efforts by the staff and residents, resulted in a 32 percent decrease in monthly water usage translat- ing into a monthly savings of nearly $40,000. Tenants seem to be happy with the toilets too. "My partner and I are amazed that we haven't had any call- backs on projects where we've used Niagara products," said the managing member. While continuing to monitor water conservation efforts at the Reserve, apartment management has seen no evi- dence of excessive sewer stoppage due to the retrofit. Water and sewer bills also indicate residents aren't double-flushing or any improper use of the newly installed products. Considering all associated costs, the project will completely pay for itself in just over 13 months. The savings in both money and water usage will continue to pay dividends for years to come, even as water and sewer rates increase. In addition to the annual savings of $480,000, ownership at The Reserve at estimates property value has increased 12 to 15 times the annual savings – that's over $6 million.
