MDV-SEIA Partners with IEC-Chesapeake

MDV-SEIA members will be able to receive member discounted pricing on all Continuing Education Courses, including the NABCEP Solar PV and Solar Thermal Classes.

April 22, 2013 (Laurel, MD) – MDV-SEIA has established an agreement with the Independent Electrical Contractors Association Chesapeake Chapter (IECC) allowing our members to take advantage of a reduced partner membership with the IECC at a significantly reduced membership fee of $150.00 (Full membership is normally $1,395.00).

With this partnership MDV-SEIA members will be able to receive member discounted pricing on all Continuing Education Courses, including the NABCEP Solar PV and Solar Thermal Classes. This is especially valuable considering the Maryland Energy Administration recently updated regulations to require that solar installation companies obtain NABCEP certification prior to obtaining MEA grants. MDV-SEIA affiliate pricing is designed so members will easily recoup the cost of membership through savings in the training program.

While training was the primary driver for MDV-SEIA to partner with IECC, there are several other benefits of IECC membership through their affinity programs that include, but are not limited to:

o Banking Resources (Credit Union Membership)

o FedEx Program: Express, Ground, and Freight

o STAPLES Business Advantage Program

o Home Depot Discount Program

o Enterprise Fleet Services

o Fuel Savings

The partnership also provides members greater access to Continuing Education and Code Panels, such as the State Apprenticeship Councils in VA and MD, and will bolster our government affairs relations. For more information on the IECC, please visit their website at http://www.iecchesapeake.com.

Introducing RockIt Smart Slide

Introducing RockIt Smart Slide

Introducing RockIt Smart Slide - the ultimate solution for fast and easy installation of the rail-less RockIt racking system on composition shingle roofs. Smart Slide conforms to UL 441 and TAS 100 (A)-95 for wind and wind-driven rain, providing a super-strong watertight seal that is achieved through compression, in most cases without the need for additional sealant. The waterproofing sealant is embedded deep into the granules of the shingle, thanks to the integrated flexible foam layer that provides cushioning. This ensures a secure fit that conforms to any architectural-style shingle. With UltraGrip Technology™, you can rely on a secure installation, as it absorbs the movement created by thermal expansion and contraction. The pre-installed sealing pads are compatible with all composition shingle roofs, making it the ideal choice, even in ambient temperatures as low as 5 degrees.
