No, no midwest heritage! Grew up in Boston, came to California when I was

There used to be someone on this list named Scott Hudson which I would
always get confused with YOU, Scott Hieber.. and both of you contributed to
the defense fund...

while and generally their price per BTU/hr capacity is very high

chlorflorocarbon gases to move heat around.<<

Thats the kind of missing info I was wondering about...AZOO doesnt give much
in the way of technical specs...no big surprise there for an Asian
company...so I wondered about BTUs, voltage and so forth... is it common for
most chillers to be heaters as well? I thought that was sort of unique, but
I'm getting the impression thats commonplace?
