.NARI NEWS
Thank You to NARI Industry Partner, Panasonic, for Renewing!
Our mission is to help our partners maintain solid reputations in their local area. Inadequate ventilation can lead to bad indoor air and moisture issues that can cause health problems and property damage. Per the EPA, when remodeling a home, measures should be taken to minimize and remove contaminated air. One of the most effective ways to improve indoor air quality is through mechanical ventilation. We are committed to helping remodelers increase homeowner trust and referrals by engineering our fans to provide remodelers with the power to remove moist, polluted-air with powerful ECM-motors, that are easy to install, reduced call backs and increase customer satisfaction.

The level of disruption and change in everything that we do has been unimaginable. Which is to say, it
has been extraordinarily difficult to anticipate or reasonably plan for what the weeks and months ahead
hold. The rate of change in our lives has been multi-dimensional, and our experience simply does not
equip us for this.

Greater Profits Through Grippage
Remodeling
Improving your profit margin can make a tremendous impact on the net profit of your remodeling company. However, remodeling companies focused on improving their profit margin are often much more focused on avoiding slippage than they are achieving grippage.
Slippage and grippage are the difference in gross profit percentage on a job from what it was originally estimated to be. If you estimated the profit to make a 35% margin, and it ended up being 33%, there was 2% slippage. If that job finished at a gross profit margin of 37%, there was 2% grippage.
