Jury finds hose at fault; Verdict a victory for radiant contractors.
Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. was ordered to pay more than $23 million to a Colorado vacation home developer in a decision by an Arapahoe County jury, who found the Entran II tubing used in the homes' radiant heating systems to be faulty.
Vista Resorts, developer of several high-end vacation homes, spent millions replacing or repairing the radiant systems in six of its Beaver Creek exclusive Chateau Chalet Condominiums, according to Dick Clark of the law firm Rothgerber, Johnson & Lyons, who tried the case.
