Residential Systems, a division of
American Standard Companies, announced that it would allow its Trane and
American Standard dealers to apply co-op funds to membership in the Service
Roundtable, the industry's largest private contractor group.

"Residential Systems has a long track record of providing our dealers with
outstanding support," said Dave Pannier, President. "We see the Service
Roundtable as another element in our dealer support efforts. A large number
of Trane and American Standard dealers are already members of the group and
speak very highly of it."

According to Pannier, one advantage of the Service Roundtable is its
universal appeal. "It's affordable by all of our dealers and we see this as
an opportunity to learn from one another and share best practices with the
goal of raising the level of professionalism in our industry," added
Pannier.

"Residential Systems is taking a leadership position in support of
contractors," said Service Roundtable CEO, Matt Michel. "It will pay off
with more successful dealers, more sales, and greater loyalty."
