Hines Horizontal Overhung Performance

You might be interested to know that in making the purchase decision an influencing factor has been the performance of the current [Hines] machine. I am told that we bought it in 2004 and it has run since then continuously without breakdown, which I think is an outstanding testimonial to your company. We look forward to receiving a similar machine.

HVAC Industry about Hines On-site Training

I just wanted to let you know that we really appreciated Tracy's service, yesterday. He came in on time, got the job done quickly and professionally, and answered any questions we asked during the calibration. He also provided us with some good training about the balancers' capabilities and how best to set our parts up, and also what not to do on the balancers. He covered all the areas we wanted to cover, and was able to thoroughly answer questions that came up during the session.
