We specialize in hot water heating for residential, commercial and industrial applications. We also sell
air conditioning for residential and commercial applications. We are very involved with the use of
alternative piping called "Pex" for heating, plumbing, snowmelting and preinsulated underground
piping for energy transfer. We sell outdoor reset controls to save energy and make equipment run
"smarter". We sell circulating pumps for hot water systems that are 80% more efficient than any
other standard circulator being used today! We sell the most efficient, most innovative
boilers available today from the world's largest boiler company! We sell alternative energy
products like solar heating that can help reduce your energy costs and help you leave a cleaner
environment for future generations. We've been doing this for 44 years and hope we can bring that
experience to you for your next project!
Education
Education is the key to success as our industry moves forward with more energy efficient equipment.
Classes are available to the contractor to complete your understanding of how the equipment is
properly applied and installed, as well as giving you the edge on explaining it to your customers so
they know they have hired the best! Schools are offered throughout the year at local or regional
venues as well as at manufacturing facilities. Visiting a manufacturing facility for school can be
exciting and give you a whole new perspective on why the manufacturer makes it's products and
applies them the way they do. If you have that kind of opportunity, we strongly urge you to take it.
See our Training page for current schools being offered to installing contractors and where they will
held. This listing will change frequently so remember to come back and take a look.

Located in Vernon, British Columbia, Tekmar manufactures a wide array of controls for the hot water
heating market. All controls are manufactured to give your heating appliance the most energy
efficient capabilities possible, sometimes realizing as much as 30% savings! Tekmar does offer
classes in Vernon, but because that is so far away and J.R. Baker Associates is the original
Tekmar representative in Upstate NY, we generally hold classes at our office or your site. The link

Wilo
Wilo, (pronounced Veelow) Wilo, a German based company with U.S. Headquarters in Chicago, Ill.
manufactures circulating pumps for the HVAC and groundwater industry. A privately held firm, Wilo
manufactures some of the most innovative equipment our industry has ever seen. Wilo has a major
focus on sustainable energy and energy conservation and brings those ideas to us with their training
seminars located in Chicago, J.R. Baker Associates or at your site as schedules permit. The Stratos
and Stratos Eco ECM constant pressure differential circulating pumps are simply the biggest thing
to impact our business since the advent of the wall mounted mod-con boiler. Upon entering some
simple parameters, these circulators react to system conditions automatically as a stand alone device
making them 80% more efficient than any other fixed speed pump on the market today. As
fuel costs spiral out of control and energy efficiency is a primary concern for all
consumers, this is a must see seminar you do not want to miss for you, and your
customers. This seminar will change the way you think about zoning hot water systems
forever. Expect to see more innovative products from Wilo, clearly the leader in the industry. To
schedule a seminar for your company, please contact J.R. Baker Associates at your earliest
convenience.
