News from Hi Velocity

6 months after the fire that completely destroyed their Edmonton facilities, Energy Saving Products Ltd. is proud to be back at full production at their interim location.  With over 25 years in business, the manufacturers of Hi-Velocity Mini-Duct Systems are looking ahead to rebuilding a purpose built facility on the old site, maximizing space and efficiency.

The new building will incorporate many energy efficient components and will feature an innovative training facility showcasing the efficiency and flexibility of our fancoils and support equipment.  The structure itself is being designed to reduce the heat loss over our old facility by as much as 60%, through utilization of high grade insulation, energy efficient windows and doors, and many other concepts and ideas from the LEED Green Building Rating System.

Our thanks to all who have helped us through this trying time.

Further Announcement:
Energy Saving Products, proud manufacturers of Hi-Velocity Systems, have appointed 3 new agents to the ESP team: Rocky Mountain Integrated Solutions, Inc. representing the state of Utah, JayKay Sales Co. to represent Alabama, Georgia, and Tennessee, and Ram Mechanical Marketing Inc. in Manitoba.

An open letter to our Agents, Customers, Suppliers and Friends,

Late Tuesday evening January 27 our manufacturing facilities and offices were totally destroyed by fire.  While this occurred after hours and no one was in the building, all employees are devastated but thankfully in good health.

Our thoughts today are in turmoil, as what we have achieved in the past 25 years has been taken from us in a brief moment.  But we want to assure you that although the material things are gone, we have the strong support of all Energy Saving Products family and friends, and our combined efforts will only make us stronger.  Continuing to work as a team, we will remain a leader in the SDHV industry.

We will keep you fully informed of our progress via our website, through email, and through personal contact, and rest assured that we are coming back stronger than ever before because of your support.

We take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you for your words of encouragement, your offers of assistance and your continued support.  Energy Saving Products has the best network of customers, representatives, and suppliers that any company could ever ask for.

Energy and persistence conquer all things.  May we be blessed with an abundance of both over the next few weeks.

A heartfelt thank-you to each and every one of you,

Leon and Elaine Prevost

Update February 4, 2009:

We  have some great news and are happy to announce that Energy Saving Products has now secured a building in Edmonton and will have our telephones and faxes up and running by the 2nd week of February. E-mail access has not been affected and you can continue to contact all staff in that manner should you choose.

Today we have just started to receive material into our new facilities, and with the arrival of parts in on a daily basis, we will be able to go into production of the Hi-Velocity line immediately, which is our priority at this time.  Shipments will begin early next week. We expect to have our full product line, including Lo-V, JH and the Hi-Velocity Air Purification System available for shipping within 4 weeks.

Please note that this turn of events has not affected our ability to supply your flex duct requirements. Please visit our web site at www.hi-velocity.com for an open letter to all our associates, along with news and updates.  We have added a link to photos and articles of the fire.

All of us here at Energy Saving Products sincerely appreciate your responsiveness and patience.

Update February 6, 2009 News Flash!!!

Friday Feb 6th is a key day for the New Energy Saving Products, we have started building units in our temporary facilities. We have refurbished much of our early assembly equipment that was in storage and are preparing components. We are on schedule to be able to ship limited product next week and barring delays on replacement products, we will be back into partial production the week after. Our new offices should be up and running back at full speed by Wednesday of next week.

Once again this would not be possible without the support of the ESP family and friends, without the physical and moral support of all of you this would not be possible. We cannot say THANK YOU enough.
