OIL STOCKS AND THE FUTURE ECONOMY

With the recent fluctuatuation of oil prices we thought it would be prudent for Books4HVAC.com to place the banner on our site showing all visitors the current and future prices for oil. The price of oil affects all of us in the HVAC industry more than we realize. With this idea we will continue to add supporting documents and posts for this section of the blog concerning oil prices and the HVAC industry.

2000 International Codes to be removed this year.

Books4HVAC will be removing the 2000 International Mechanical code and other 2000 International codes from its website by 2005 years end. Removal of this code book is due to the decreased usage in classrooms and also most states having upgraded to the newest version of the code, the 2003 International Mechanical code. You will still be able to order the 2000 codes after 2005 but please realize our inventory is subject to reduction.

Along with the newer codes come additional studying materials to assist you in learning 2003 code guidelines.
