(..20 some years ago) Some Reznor used to be more expensive than
most because it would be spec'ed by architects (model specific
with no equivalents) and usually was price quoted at three times
the amount over the _preferred_ mechanical company's price.
(IOW, a done deal don't bother bidding)
But I digress...
It also used to be real nice equipment. Not sure about now?
