North Olmsted, Ohio... From installation, to upkeep and repairs, property maintenance professionals do it all. They are the unsung heroes of the apartment industry. In recognition of and appreciation for the industry's top maintenance professionals, Cleveland Faucet Group (CFG), Moen's brand of faucets designed exclusively for the multi-family industry, is proud to announce that they are the new national sponsor of this season's Maintenance Mania® competition, which runs from August 2012 through June 2013. Maintenance Mania is offered by the National Apartment Association, a leading advocate for quality rental housing, and presenting sponsor HD Supply Facilities Maintenance, a leading supplier of maintenance, repair and operations (MRO) products to the multi-family industry.

Maintenance Mania allows apartment maintenance technicians from around the country to compete head-to-head in various skill-based games. The events are built on common apartment maintenance issues, like fire and carbon monoxide safety installation, plumbing upkeep and lamp and ballast retrofit.

"Apartment owners, managers and residents rely on maintenance managers to keep their properties running smoothly; yet these individuals rarely get a chance to be recognized," said Deena Cave, CFG Brand Manager. "Moen and CFG are proud to acknowledge the tireless efforts of these professionals -- and test their skills with a little friendly competition."

Moen and CFG created an original game for the 2012-2013 Maintenance Mania event season. The game highlights CFG's ease of installation, and challenges professionals to remove the ceramic disc cartridge from a single-handle CFG bathroom faucet and use that same cartridge to complete the installation of a CFG kitchen faucet -- all within approximately 30 seconds. CFG has one standard cartridge to fit all single-handle kitchen and bath faucets, helping reduce overall installation time, eliminating the need for extra supplies and diminishing the risk of installation errors.

In addition to a common faucet cartridge, CFG products offer a number of maintenance technician-friendly designs to make installation simple and fast, like Quick-Connect Flexible Supply Lines, which snap hoses together with a telltale "click" to ensure a fast, secure, tool-free installation. These benefits contribute to CFG's lower total cost of ownership, reducing maintenance time and operational costs and eliminating the need for replacement parts -- keeping technicians and residents satisfied.

"Day in and day out, our maintenance professionals complete some of the most important tasks in an apartment complex, often with little or no acknowledgment," said Kimberlee Berry, senior manager of affiliate relations, NAA. "Maintenance Mania is the only program in the industry that recognizes maintenance professionals -- and it could not possibly happen without the support of national sponsors like Moen and CFG."

Maintenance Mania begins with a series of NAA affiliate events across the nation, beginning August 23, 2012. The top maintenance professional from each of NAA's 10 regions, plus the top 10 "wild card" overall high-scoring professionals, will travel to San Diego in June, 2013, to compete for the title of Maintenance Mania National Champion, as well as their share of $20,000 in prizes.

"Maintenance professionals are essential to the success and viability of the multifamily housing industry," said NAA president Doug Culkin. "NAA is extremely proud to be able to shine a light on such an outstanding group of individuals through the Maintenance Mania program."
