FIRE FIRE IF OF ELECTRIC ORIGIN, IS USUALLY TRACED TO DEFECTIVE SWITCHBOARDS, PANELS, SWITCHES OR APPLIANCES. WE HAVE BEEN BUILDING THESE DEVICES FOR 23 YEARS, AND HAVE NEVER HAD A CLAIM MADE ON ANY OF OUR MATERIAL. AT FIRST WE THOUGHT WE WERE LUCKY, BUT NOW IT IS PRETTY GENERALLY CONCEDED THAT IT IS THE QUALITY OF THE PRODUCT, AND THE CARE WITH WHICH IT IS BUILT AND TESTED. WHY TAKE CHANCES? OUR PRICES ARE NO HIGHER THAN OTHERS, WHO CANNOT SHOW SUCH A RECORD. INSURANCE MAY BE A GOOD PROPOSITION, BUT NQ FIRE IS MUCH BETTER FOR BUSINESS.
