    Residential Systems, a division of
    American Standard Companies, announced that it would allow its Trane and
    American Standard dealers to apply co-op funds to membership in the Service
    Roundtable, the industry's largest private contractor group.

    "Residential Systems has a long track record of providing our dealers with
    outstanding support," said Dave Pannier, President. "We see the Service
    Roundtable as another element in our dealer support efforts. A large number
    of Trane and American Standard dealers are already members of the group and
    speak very highly of it."

    According to Pannier, one advantage of the Service Roundtable is its
    universal appeal. "It's affordable by all of our dealers and we see this as
    an opportunity to learn from one another and share best practices with the
    goal of raising the level of professionalism in our industry," added
    Pannier.

    "Residential Systems is taking a leadership position in support of
    contractors," said Service Roundtable CEO, Matt Michel. "It will pay off
    with more successful dealers, more sales, and greater loyalty."
