Dear Sirs, We thank you for your letter of February 18th. It is possible that the bellows of the new unit which you have discharged has taken a permanent set as a result of water pressure. In any case, we are exceedingly glad that the point has been discovered, as we will make sure that any future deliveries are absolutely correct in this respect. Yours truly, THE BRITISH THERMOSTAT CO. LTD. W.Martin-hurst Director. | ||
