“Hi Sam, I was training...and used your HVAC Systems Operations, Maintenance and Optimization Book several times. What a terrific book. You are the master! And I still enjoy being one of your fans. Our company has grown steadily....But very little happens where I'm not giving some credit to what you've done for me in air balancing. As I read your work, the technical part is always there, but you somehow include motivation to do the work along with the technical principles. You still lead me and make me do what I do better. Please call on me if I can ever do anything for you, or just to touch bases. I think of you often as I strive to expand your legacy at our seminars.” Rob Falke, President, National Comfort Institute
