SharkBite is the Push-Fit connection system that’s really taking hold. It’s the easiest way to join copper, CPVC or PEX pipe in any combination – with no soldering, clamps, unions or glue. Just insert the pipe and the stainless steel teeth bite down and grip tight, while a specially formulated O-ring compresses to create a perfect seal. Disassembly is just as fast using the simple disconnect tool. So fittings and valves can be easily changed and reused. They can even be rotated after assembly for easier installation in tight spaces. Get SharkBite, and get a grip on your next plumbing project.

Pantone is pleased to announce PANTONE 15-5519 Turquoise, an inviting, luminous hue, as the Color of the Year for 2010. Combining the serene qualities of blue and the invigorating aspects of green, Turquoise inspires thoughts of soothing, tropical waters and a comforting escape from the everyday troubles of the world, while at the same time restoring our sense of wellbeing.
In many cultures, Turquoise is believed to be a protective talisman, a color of deep compassion and healing, and a color of faith and truth, inspired by water and sky. Through years of color word-association studies, we also find that to many people, Turquoise represents an escape, taking them to a tropical paradise that is pleasant and inviting – even if it is only a fantasy.
Whether envisioned as a tranquil ocean surrounding a tropical island or a protective stone warding off evil spirits, Turquoise is a color that most people respond to positively. It is universally flattering, has appeal for men and women, and translates easily to fashion and interiors. With both warm and cool undertones, Turquoise pairs nicely with any other color in the spectrum. Turquoise adds a splash of excitement to neutrals and browns, complements reds and pinks, creates a classic maritime look with deep blues, livens up all other greens, and is especially trend-setting with yellow-greens.

While downsizing may be en vogue in some areas of the home, consumers still place high value on the bath as a personal retreat. In high-stress times, products that promote relaxation are increasingly important, and as such, jetted tubs, spas, saunas and steam baths remain must-haves on many consumers’ lists. Additionally, an aging demographic has given a boost to products that offer therapeutic benefits, as these are seen as having real value, a hot buzzword with today’s consumer.
Ahhhh
“People are more focused on overall health, and that includes reducing stress and encouraging more relaxation,” says Jamie Polk, v.p. of sales for Diamond Spas in Frederick, CO. “They are turning their standard bathrooms into mini spas that can be used at any time in the privacy of their own homes.” Jetted tubs, saunas and steam baths can all contribute to that spa-like feel, he notes.
Whether incorporating a steam shower, whirlpool or sauna in a partial or full renovation, the key is to make the room more comfortable and relaxing for the homeowner, manufacturers agree.

With Touch2O® Technology it doesn’t matter if you have two full hands or 10 messy fingers, tap anywhere on the spout or handle and the water is running.
You’re sure to fall in love with just one touch. The intuitive tap technology enables you to turn the faucet on and off with just a touch — anywhere on the faucet’s body or handle.
So, when hands are messy during meal prep or clean-up, Touch2O® Technology helps reduce the spread of germs and bacteria — simply touch the faucet body with your wrist or forearm.
Touch2O® Technology can also help you conserve water. As you prepare food or wash up in the sink, just tap the Touch2O® faucet to keep water from running when you don’t need it. Then just touch it again to start the water flowing again.
