Lebanon, Tenn. — Lochinvar has announced the first winners in its VIP Contractor Program for the 2013-2014 heating season.  Jamie Whitehead of Cooper Plumbing & Heating in Calgary, AB, was named the October winner of the VIP Installation Showcase, and Charles Felt of Buddy’s Plumbing Service in Winthrop, MA, was selected in the first monthly VIP drawing.  Both winners will be awarded Lochinvar’s famous Nashville Experience, the ultimate reward for VIP Contractors.

During the initial month of the annual VIP Installation Showcase, which is housed on Lochinvar’s Facebook page as well as on www.knightheatingboiler.com, Whitehead submitted an entry detailing the installation of a KNIGHT® Wall Mount Heating Boiler and a Squire® Indirect Water Heater at a custom home in Calgary.  The energy-efficient system provides radiant space heating for the entire home and garage as well as domestic hot water for the luxury home, including its six bathrooms with large bathtubs and multi-outlet showers.  This award marks Whitehead’s third win in the annual contest.

“I’m thrilled that Lochinvar has once again recognized my work in its VIP Installation Showcase,” said Whitehead. “We take great pride in delivering the highest quality service and solutions to our clients, and it means a lot when a top industry leader takes notice of what we’re doing in the field.”

Through April, VIPs can upload a photo and brief description of any qualified boiler or boiler/Squire combination installation for a chance to be named the monthly winner of the VIP Installation Showcase. Once an entry has been submitted, it is featured in a gallery where

Facebook users can vote for their favorite installation.  Those not engaged with social media can enter and vote on www.knightheatingboiler.com. The top three entries with the most votes each month are selected as finalists, and a panel of Lochinvar judges chooses the monthly winner.  New and repeat entries can be submitted each month for additional chances to win.

Along with Whitehead, Felt will be among the VIP Contractors attending the 2014 Nashville Experience, an all-expenses-paid trip for two that includes tickets to the world’s largest country music festival in June. He has been a registered VIP Contractor since 2008, and this will be his first trip to the Nashville Experience.

Felt’s award was the result of simply registering qualified Lochinvar products.  With every registration of a high-efficiency KNIGHT® Boiler, Solution™ Boiler and Cadet™ Boiler,  VIPs receive an entry into a drawing for the Nashville Experience, as well as a $25 Visa® Reward Card[1]; in addition, a $10 reward card is sent for every registered Squire® Indirect Water Heater.  When the drawing was held for October, his registration card was randomly selected as the winner.

“I’m really looking forward to the Nashville Experience in June,” said Felt.  “I was already excited about getting the rewards card for my registration, and I couldn’t believe it when I found out I won the first drawing for the trip!”
