President's Message Greetings ASHRAE Members:
Our next meeting should prove to be very interesting especially to those of us who are mechanically minded. We will be meeting at PoolPak in York for a factory tour. This is a great opportunity to see what is involved on the production side of the equipment we specify and how this type of equipment is assembled. It also will hopefully trigger some questions you may have never thought of before. After the tour we will head down the road for dinner and a presentation on natatorium design. This program should prove valuable to all who size and specify equipment for pool rooms. I look forward to seeing
you at the next meeting and as a reminder if you received a voucher
from the last meeting for the 50/50 drawing please bring them to this
meeting for a chance to win the drawing. |
