Bryant Donates Evolution System to Country’s Best Showcase Log Home

NECEDAH, WI – (March 29, 2006) – Jim’s Burner Service, Inc., a local Bryant Heating & Cooling Systems dealer, donated an Evolution™ heating and cooling system to the Country's Best Showcase Log Home, a contemporary log cabin designed and constructed by Wisconsin Rapids-based Golden Eagle Log Homes. House tours of the Lake Petenwell home will benefit the new American Family Children’s Hospital in Madison, Wisconsin.

The Evolution System, Bryant’s most advanced home comfort system, allows homeowners to control temperature, humidity, air flow, ventilation, indoor air quality (IAQ) and zoning via one easy-to-navigate control. The public is invited to experience this cutting-edge technology during two VIP events and an open house in late April and early May.

"We were delighted to donate one of our most innovative heating and cooling systems to benefit such a great cause," said Jim Sabo, president of Jim’s Burner Service, Inc. "It’s important for the community to pitch in and do whatever it takes."

Bryant’s Evolution System lets homeowners manage up to eight different zone settings and enjoy longer heating and cooling cycles at lower fan speeds, which translates into energy savings and more consistent temperatures throughout the home. The system includes Evolution Control, a backlit display with advanced communication capabilities, one of Bryant’s best-in-class variable-speed furnaces, a two-speed heat pump and a two-speed air conditioner featuring a Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) of 16.5 that uses non-ozone-depleting Puron® refrigerant.

VIP Event: Golden Eagle Log Homes will host VIP Events at the million-dollar Country’s Best Showcase log home from 6-10 p.m., Friday, April 28 and Friday, May 12. VIP events will feature live entertainment, raffles, hors d’oeuvres, spirits and non-alcoholic beverages. Semi-formal dress is advised. Attendees must be at least 21 years old. Tickets are $75 each.
