    “We had such a great time with all of the VIP Contractors and their guests who joined us for the Nashville Experience,” said Stirling Boston, director of marketing. “It was an honor to meet the contractors behind the impressive installations we’ve seen throughout the year and put faces to the names of those who submitted registrations for all of the Lochinvar boilers they installed this season. We’re so proud to count them as partners, and we appreciate the opportunity to reward them for their hard work.”
