Cool stuff

I'm in Palm Beach and talking about air conditioning seems timely. Bob came by the show yesterday and gave me a hard time that I'm not blogging enough. So let's talk air. (and Bob I hope this keeps you happy for a day or two)

AC works best when you send the cool air out on top of the hot air and the cool air then falls pushing the hot air back to the blowers. So with the 40 we wanted to make the air as effective as we could and have chosento blow the cool air out of the valance on the port side of the salon. The valance shown here is temporarily in place and in a day or two we'll be cutting slits into this piece so the air can be blown into the box and will come out through the slits, flowing across the salon. (Note the elegant curve created by laminating this part to form the corner)

Valance 

We've learned a lot about air over the years and with David Newcomb now heading up the engineering team at Sabre we have a fellow who lived air conditioning in Florida for a number of years and fully understands the capacities and pump sizes that the Florida weather requires. The 40 has enough air to keep the hottest Floridian and Maryland summer temperatures at bay.

So keep cool and stay tuned. I'm off to the show to sell some more Sabre 40's. Just a few weeks before launch day now
