VisionPRO® IAQ Total Home Comfort System
Homeowners can manage temperature, humidification, dehumidification and ventilation throughout the home, all from VisionPRO IAQ's single touch-screen control.
The thermostat automatically raises or lowers humidity levels throughout all rooms in the home, as necessary, either moisturizing the air to prevent symptoms of dryness and to protect hardwood flooring and woodwork, or using air conditioning or a whole-house dehumidifier to prevent dampness, stickiness or odours. VisionPro IAQ also removes air pollutants by exchanging the stale air in a house with fresh, filtered air.

DUST CONTROL™ Drywall Compound
Drywall dust that's settled on surfaces, clogged up masks and coated goggles can take hours, even days, to clean up. DUST CONTROL Drywall Compound dramatically reduces airborne dust. Its "heavy dust" particles bind together and drop straight to the floor, making it easy to vacuum or sweep up quickly.
Besides the no-mess factor, DUST CONTROL promises low shrinkage with just two coats over beads and trim, and excellent bond for both taping and finishing coats.

Signal Boosters
How often have you been frustrated on a work site because of the lack of cell phone coverage? It's probably inevitable when you're working in a new area or a region that is near the edge of a current cellular coverage grid. Signal Boosters are amplifiers that can extend your wireless phone coverage area and improve its performance when you're in such a situation.
An external antenna collects a signal from a cell phone tower and sends it to the Signal Booster, which then amplifies, strengthens and clarifies the weak signal. Available in a variety of models for different applications, it works with any cell phone, and up to three coworkers can use one Signal Booster at the same time.

Pascal™ Culinary Faucet
Culinary enthusiasts and everyday homeowners alike would welcome a "personal assistant" in their kitchens. The Pascal Culinary Faucet, which combines precise hands-free and touch-control technology, can be easily and quickly turned on and off by tapping or by placing one's hands under the spout. Extending the pull-down spray head automatically turns the water on, while retracting it turns it off. A twist-and-lock mechanism that keeps the wand in place when not in use.
Additional benefits are sanitation, since dirty or contaminated hands need not touch the faucet during food preparation, and water and energy conservation, as the Pascal faucet is less likely to be left running.
