IAPMO joins green conference

ONTARIO, CALIF. — The International Association of Plumbing & Mechanical Officials will participate in the upcoming National Green Mechanical Educators and Trainers Conference in Las Vegas, March 14-16, 2010.

Hosted by the Green Mechanical Council, this inaugural event will run concurrently with the 2010 National HVACR Educators and Trainers Conference, both taking place at the Tropicana Hotel. IAPMO will present three seminars at the National Green Mechanical Educators and Trainers Conference: alternate water sources; commercial hoods, kitchen ventilation; and firestopping in fire-resistive-rated assemblies.

These conferences are a train-the-trainer type of “boot camp,” consisting of sessions covering new and changing technologies, federal legislation, energy efficiency, best practices, training techniques that work, green and sustainable technologies, industry exhibits and roundtable discussions.

“Whether it be at our own conference, events like this or our vital international training programs, such as our work in India, IAPMO is a name that has become synonymous with the highest quality education available in the fields of plumbing and mechanical systems,” said G.P. “Russ” Chaney, IAPMO executive director. “It is always an honor for us to contribute to an event like the National Green Mechanical Educators and Trainers Conference.”
