"The four winners that included Sloan on their award applications are acknowledging the importance of installing reliable water- and energy-efficient plumbing systems as part of their buildings' overall design," says Susan Kennedy, director of marketing for Sloan Valve Company. "Given the prevalence of Sloan Valve Company's plumbing systems, it's very likely that many of the other award-winners also use Sloan faucets, Flushometers and other fixtures in their buildings."
All award winners will be showcased in Buildings magazine's October 2007 issue. Buildings' publisher, Stamats Business Media, Cedar Rapids, Iowa, sponsored the awards program.
