Steel Prices What's Up?

We have seen some temporary price reductions in the last few weeks.  I say temporary due to the following explanation I received when I asked what's up.  It appears that the steel centers are  finally receiving their January and February stock orders now.  Therefore, the steel centers are being forced to dump steel at a reduced price to help their cash flow.  I'm told this will be very short term and to expect the price to rise again.

Ruud's New Stylish looking
10 Seer Condenser

Ruud has made some changes to its very popular UAKA series condensing units which will now be called the UAKB series.  The first thing you will notice is the jacket height has been lowered a few inches.  This was achieved by the design change:  a guard type discharge grill was added in place of the stamped type and the air shroud around the fan blade was redesigned. The sharp corners have been changed to rounded corners giving the unit a nicer look.  The best change for the serviceman was the redesign of the access panel with  two screws on the side for easy excess. This eliminates the four screws: two on the top and two down very low, where you had to get on your knees to see the screws. Ruud found that on many units the serviceman would leave the bottom screws out. 
The redesign of the unit is contractor influenced ,  provides easier service access,  has an easy-to-handle cabinet, and has an attractive low profile.

Yaun Company's Traffic Dept.

Ed Kraycer, Manager of Yaun Company's Traffic Department, has many responsibilities and one that's high on the list of importance is the matter of truck departures.
Ed's job is to see that the trucks are loaded and ready to leave the night before so that they can pull out early in the morning (some at 5:30 am) of the delivery day. The customer will receive his orders earlier and the truck will return at a reasonable time for reloading for the following day's route.
Yaun Company plans on adding a daily delivery to the Middletown area  this summer.
Yaun Company appreciates when the customers call their orders in prior to 2:30 for the next day's delivery.
