Web Exclusive Feature-Tyco Fire & Building Products Takes Valve Training on the Road"
If you can't bring the fire protection student to the classroom, you bring the classroom to the student.
Housed inside a 32-foot-long stock car trailer, the VDU is a fully-functioning demonstration facility designed to better educate local contractors, consulting engineers, local authorities, and building owners on the functions and operations of fire protection system valves, and the most recent developments in Tyco's fire protection valve systems, as well as how they factor into the current codes and standards. Basically, the VDU is a fire protection education tool, conceptualized under one of the core principles in marketing: if the consumer does not know about the product, how can they buy it? (And, in this case, also specify and/or install it.)
