giving them substantial return on investment (R.O.I.).

The payback period for a PowerMate is consistently less than a year and
frequently less than 6 months.

• What our Plumbing-HVAC/R Customers say about PowerMate:
▸ Arnold & Son’s Plumbing, Heating & A/C
• “We purchased our PowerMate in March of 2000 and could not be happier...The time saved and added safety have paid
for this machine 10 fold... I would recommend your product to anyone! ...we have had no down time or repairs with our
Powermate. Who could ask for anything more? We consider it the most valuable tool in our warehouse or on the job.”
▸ Jack Hall Plumbing & Heating, Inc.
• “It not only cuts your time on getting the equipment in and out of houses, but you get to keep your other techs out in the
field making you money on other jobs... It has definitely paid for itself time and time again.”
▸ Stein Plumbing
• “We purchased a unit from you about five years ago and it has quietly become one of the best purchases I have ever
made. Before we purchased your product I would always struggle when it came to moving large water heaters and other
heavy objects. How many people do I need? How can I get them there at the same time? Should I hire a moving company
so I don’t risk hurting one of my employees? Your product changed all those questions into ‘Don't forget the Powermate’.”
