Suzanne Vollmer and the Vollmer company just announced that they have reached an agreement with Viessman to acquire the license to produce the Vollmer line and keep Vollmer alive.

Excellent news!  I was also hoping for something like that. It didn't make sense for a company which makes such a wider range of excellent models to just close shop.  So Viessman will not just make catenary anymore.  :)

Well, we will see what happens regarding catenary as both companies have their own line of catenary. The Viessmann catenary being the better looking product, albeit more expensive.
