Engineering & Manufacturing services are provided by JBAR A/C, Inc. and we are acting on their behalf as their authorized sales agent. Our role in this partnership is to be the first line of contact with the OEM. Our consultation with you will narrow the field of possibilities and help pinpoint exactly what type of system will provide the best performance for your expected application and what design options will fit best within your cost structure to help maintain the target price point for your product.
As we all know, when it comes to manufacturing, higher volumes bring lower costs per unit. There are limits to what we can achieve with short production runs. In very general terms you can expect initial recommendations that follow the chart below. THESE ARE NOT FIRM POLICIES. YOUR SITUATION WILL LIKELY ALLOW DEVIATION FROM THESE EXAMPLES. PLEASE CALL US BEFORE MAKING ANY DECISIONS.
