I think the bag of Gummy Bears I bought in Germany are Haribo.

The Germans also make great Sugar free, diabetic chocolate.

    What A Tough One!!!!!!!

    This was a tough job. My first Vitodens in a 5,000 sq. ft. commercial steel building on a radiant slab. The main business there is plastic welding, and the material HAS to be at room temperature.

    Richard Trethewey's company is the Viessmann rep in Maine; two of his best guys called to say they could be at my jobsite on Wed. at 10 a.m. to help me fire and program the boiler.

    As of Tuesday at 10 a.m. I had no power, no water and no propane; needless to say, my nerves were jangled! The electrician never showed up, the plumber never showed up and the propane truck had broken down. Yikes!

    We pulled it together by sheer force of will, skill, good luck and good karma. We ran a power line, we piped up a temporary water supply and the propane company delivered at 8 p.m. on Tues. night.

    At 10 a.m. on Wed. Richard's two excellent guys (Fullerton and Bolduc) showed up, fired and programmed the boiler, calmed me down, talked with the owners and left in a blaze of glory; the Vitodens runs smoothly, quietly and is condensing LOTS of H2O. Everybody was happy (including me!).

    I would personally like to thank Richard first of all for having brought Viessmann to the U.S. and secondarily for having such wonderful, knowledgeable and helpful people on staff such as Mr. Fullerton and Mr. Bolduc.

    Richard: in my mind, YOU have set the standard for being a manufacturer's representative. Thank You!

    Cheers all around!

    Jack,

    So happy to hear that the whole job came together despite the last minute issues... and so good to hear that Rich and his crew were able to come up on a road trip to eastern Maine on the day before Thanksgiving...

    ... (pant pant) where are the picture, Jack? (pant pant) ... I'm suffering through withdrawl symptoms! Cheers! And Happy Turkey Day!

    Viessmann

    I was fortunate enough to go to Germany with Rich and Tom, among other people. RST is a first class rep. company.

    Can't wait to see the pics Ragu.

    Isn't RST great??

    Rich runs a fine show and has excellent people. This illustrates it.

    Congratulations, Ragu, on your first Viessmann Vitodens install. What a happy machine. First time "happy" has been applied to a German product I suppose. But happy it is.

    (We have not named ours yet, but we know it is a girl. Susan said so. :)

    Sorry, Constantin

    The closest I got to making Joachim (Joe) Fiederich laugh could at best be termed "mildly amused". :) That was work!

    Gummi Bears are German? IDNKT!

    Your "Ms. Vitola" naming is what prompted the naming rights contest. Susan wins of course.

    And Susan knows Marzipan :)

    Cheers and Tryptophans,

    Brad
