    Modine Effinity93 App

    Modine’s new Effinity93 App is a free, cost-savings calculator for both iOS and Android phone platforms and tablets.   The mobile app is an interactive tool that calculates the payback and energy savings associated with installing the Effinity93 condensing unit heater. 

    The app (available in GooglePlay and iTunes) is ideal for contractors and engineers responsible for specifying HVAC equipment for projects of any size.  By entering simple jobsite data in the intuitive calculator, users can compare products with differing efficiencies to determine annual cost savings, ROI and environmental advantages.  Results can be saved, emailed and printed with a simple click.

    The product’s 10 model sizes range from 55,000 to 310,000 BTU/hr.  According to sources, the average payback, through substantial energy savings, is only three years. Effinity93 also reduces cost in operations and improves the environment with a minimum 15% decrease in CO2 when compared to other gas-fired heaters.  Federal and state rebates are also available.

    At 93% minimum thermal efficiency, Modine’s Effinity93 is the most efficient gas-fired unit heater in the market today, Modine sources claim.  modinehvac.com.Print Hammermill App Contractors have access to all the content they need on their phones and tablets – they just need a way to print from anywhere.  Hammermill Paper – a trusted, brand name – is finally providing a simple cross platform solution with the Print
    Hammermill app.  The free app is available through Google Play and Amazon Appstore, and connects to wireless printers via WiFi, Google Cloud, Windows Shared, Bluetooth, and USB. The app is also available through the Apple App Store and connects via WiFi. There is more content available for consumers now than ever before.  Printing still has a place, but you no longer find yourself tethered to a computer 24/7 – so routing all your printing through a computer is no longer feasible. Most of the apps available for download right now are printer specific, platform specific, expensive or don’t include all the functionality that printing via a computer would provide.  The Print Hammermill app allows users to print with the same ease they expect from a PC. The app has thousands of downloads and a 4.5 star rating in Google Play.
