WE MOVED: On April 28, 2003 we moved to a new office in Loyola Corners, a historic area in south Los Altos. Our new building was originally a house built in 1942. Long ago converted to an office, the interior was recently renovated and includes built in computer network wiring. The new address is 948 Dolores Avenue, Los Altos, CA 94024-6010.

AQUATIC INFINITY SERIES: This series in the Aquatic Whirlpool lineup offers three therapies in one tub: Traditional side-jetting; Japanese Shiatsu-style back jetting; and bottom air-bubble infusion. To fully demonstrate these three therapy functions, Aquatic developed a special cross-sectional, cut-away, working display for its national trade show exhibits. This show-stopping display was so popular that dealer showrooms requested them for their stores. One comment was, "It's like one of those glass ant farms I had as a kid." To view the working display, visit Tubz in Fremont California, 510-770-8686.
SCONCE LIGHTS: Baci, a division of Remcraft Lighting, has introduced a new line of bathroom wall sconce lights. The mounting base of the light fixtures matches the mounting base of the existing lighted makeup mirrors. While using halogen bulbs for their brilliant, sparkling light, the fixtures use standard line-voltage power supply requiring no traditional transformer.
METAL BACK MIRRORS: Baci's makeup and grooming mirrors can now be ordered with a metal back option. This allows a matching finish back for a more luxurious appearance.
PICCOLO: No, it's not a musical instrument. It's the new two-sided makeup and grooming mirror from Baci. German mirrors, Italian frames. For bathroom and travel. (Picture)

TIPS:
REBATE TIP : Many water municipalities offer rebates of $50 to $150.00 when a low flush toilet is installed to replace a 3.5 gallon or more older toilet.
WAREHOUSING TIP: When an item arrives damaged or defective, immediately make a copy of the packing slip and keep it with the item for reference when calling the factory or rep.
BLACK INK TIP: Have you ever noticed a fax or photocopy that was faint, spotty and hard to read? Odds are the original document was written in blue ink or blue carbon print. Use BLACK INK and your pages will read fine.
TOWEL WARMER TIP: Leave the unit on for 1-1/2 hours to make the warmest towel.
GET SMART TIP: Read our Glossary of Kitchen, Bath & Plumbing terms.
