[RE-wrenches] Lorentz Pumps

[Ray Walters]

Interesting about the licensed pump installer, because in New Mexico 
there is not a license.  I've been installing PV pumping systems since 
1988, so I tire easily now when companies won't work with me, because 
I'm not "qualified".
I actually installed some of the "Mono" hand crank and electric powered 
pumps in Morocco before it was ETA or Lorentz.
I'll talk to Genpro on Monday.

Thanks everybody,
