			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>OK, so you want to install home theater audio cabling. You have to go above the ceiling and below the floor, I know,  AND You want to go there at most, once, but not more than that. Well, now you can.</p>
<p>With a handful of handi-hoops you pull the wire as you install&#8230; and secure it nicely on either end and not have to go into the &#8220;hole&#8221; again, OR,  above to risk a misplaced step&#8230; I know the needs&#8230;  You want to crawl only once.</p>
<p>This is amazing equipment. I just wish it was around when I did my apprenticeship. I cant tell you how many times I just wanted to be through with one pull or I had to have someone help. You can now enter, install and pull at the same time with no return trips, if you do it right the first time. Which is the goal right? Work smarter, not harder?</p>
<p>These handi-hoops can and will save time, money, and effort. Really, isn&#8217;t that what its all about? Time IS money these days. You can&#8217;t go wrong with this. You have to try one job with handi-hoops. You will be hooked on them and wonder how you got along without them in the first place!</p>
<p>These work for not just home theaters, but computer networks as well! Both Hi and Low voltages can benefit with this equipment. Imagine the savings in time and effort! Not to mention wire! OK I will&#8230; You will save at least 2 -3 feet per run because there is no waste!</p>
<p>I have had to go back to the origin of the pull and get more slack, now I don&#8217;t. Just a little tug and you have it. No binding or chaffing, even with multiple wires! The wires are inherently protected if properly installed.</p>
<p>This is the best thing for the handyman, low voltage electricians, and residential electricians alike. Imagine a one man install in half of the time. Really!! Half the time!</p>
<p>Handi-hoops.com is the only place you can find these babies. Be the first to try them and tell your associates!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Its common to install electrical wire in a two man configuration. The first step is to rough in the electrical wire, the second step is to go back and staple it all in for support.</p>
<p>With our handi-hoops product, we&#8217;ve found that electrical line runs can often be done with one person in a much more efficient fashion.</p>
<p>The first step with handi-hoops is to visualize and engineer your wiring run. What is the most efficient way for you to run your wire through the structure in the cleanest and least wasteful way. With open studs or posts, you can install handi-hoops to build a strong, secure channel in which to run your cable. Turns are managed easily by the hoops themselves, or you can provide extra support by running your cable through <a title="Photo of ENT and Handi-Hoop configuration" href="http://www.handi-hoops.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/installation_with_ENT.jpg" target="_blank">EMT with a Hoop</a> on either end.</p>
<p>Once the channel has been laid throughout the structure, pulling your cable can be done by a single person. The kinks and friction associated with an unsupported cable run, make single man wiring installations very challenging, often damaging the cable. With a safe wiring channel provided by the Hoops, you can pull your cable safely and confidently throughout the home with a greatly reduced risk of damage to your cabling.</p>
<p>At $0.29/each in quantities of 800 or more (<a href="http://www.hometech.com/hts/products/wiring/wire_mgmt/hangers/gc-11125.html">available for less through our retailer HomeTech</a>), a typical low voltage install in a 2500 square foot home can be done with around 200 hoops for under $60. If you choose to use it as a positioning mechanism for line voltage installations as well, a case of 800 will fulfill all of your wiring needs in a full size home for just over $230. When you consider the time savings in labor expenses, from reducing the crew from two to one, for your wire pulls, and, the cost savings of avoiding damaged cable, the cost of the hoops more than justifies it in both telco hanging and line voltage positioning applications.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Structured cabling is the process of organizing and designing the system by which you lay out your cable installations.  Typically installed in a star formation, structured cabling installs allow maximum flexibility in future expansion.  Each cable run typically runs back to a single patch panel or &#8216;hub&#8217; where all cables are terminated at their central point.  Switching lines in a single office, room or cubicle is often as easy as reconfiguring at the patch panel, no construction or modifications are required in the wall or even in the office or room itself.</p>
<p>In order to successfully deploy a structured cabling solution, clean and organized cable runs are a requirement. Running sensitive CAT5 or CAT6 lines along with low voltage power and cable video runs requires a protected channel in which to run your cables throughout your internal walls, ceilings and sub-floors.</p>
<p>The handi-hoop product provides a safe and organized cabling solution. Constructed of high grade plastic with smooth edges, you can use the handi hoop as a positioning mechanism for your structured cabling runs. Running through interior walls, around 90 degree bends and even running multi-way cable runs is simple if you desire to separate the various types of cables in your runs back to the hub.</p>
