I saw an Interesting ad in New York magazine for an apartment in Manhattan.   
They quoted the interior size as 3,200 SF (297 SM). I don't think most ad's in 
Canada even use metric units yet let alone an ad in New York City.  
Unfortunately all the room dimensions are in feet only.  Oh the starting price 
is $1.25 M.

Subject: [USMA:51266] Invisco Whole House Fan Company Announces 760 mm (30 
inch) 13,600 CMH (8000 CFM) Product for Australia and New Zealand

I'm not really out to hype this fan company.  However, it is a nice example of 
US companies able to adapt and provide metric products for export markets.  It 
would be interesting to know whether the US product line is really metric or 
Customary.

Invisco, the leading supplier of whole house fans for the US, is introducing 
the most powerful 760 mm fan yet offered for Australia and New Zealand. At 
13,600 cubic meters per hour (CMH) this fan moves more air with a smaller hole 
in the ceiling than any other yet available.

(Yes, they could use a lesson in proper use of SI symbols, m³/h, but at least 
they are trying and exporting.)
