Jacksonville Baker Distributing locations hosted counter days featuring Appion and Mueller products during the week of March 25, 2026. Will Taylor of Barksdale Sales Group (BSG) was showcasing the products and answering questions.
“The Appion products that received the most attention were the new 6 CFM TEZ vacuum pump, currently the lightest on the market and the newly designed WS130 scale which has a grid pattern on the platform to prevent moisture accumulation,” Will stated. “Some contractors wanted information on the ACR press fittings as they are gaining in popularity, being much safer than torches. Mueller fittings are the only ones featuring a double o-ring system with a 360 degree crimp.”
The Counter Days were great opportunities for contractors to learn about new technologies and receive answers about warranties, applications and service needs for the products being displayed.
