Mechanical Contractors Anticipate Value in Innovation, Networking at the 2016 AHR Expo in Orlando
12/18/2015
WESTPORT, Conn., October 21, 2015 - For more than eight decades, the International Air-Conditioning, Heating, Refrigerating Exposition (AHR Expo) has focused on spotlighting the products, systems, technologies and ancillary services that define the ever-evolving HVACR industry.
With annual participation nearing 2,000 yearly exhibitors and more than 60,000 attendees, AHR Expo has grown to become one of the most significant annual events for contractors from across the country. The 2016 AHR Expo, which will take place January 25 to 27 at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, is expected to attract attendees from across the nation and around the globe, seeking the latest in HVACR equipment, technology and skill-building.
Value derived from the three-day event, which is co-sponsored by ASHRAE and AHRI, has resulted in longstanding loyalty from mechanical contractors who attend year after year, like president and owner Winfield Clamens of Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Solutions in Boca Raton, Fla.
"I've been attending AHR Expo for about 20 years and try to make it every year," said Clamens. "It's where I went to see the new products before I started my business, and now it's an important venue for attending seminars and for learning and training on new technologies and products, and seeing the manufacturers that provide them."
According to Clamens, AHR Expo streamlines his yearly planning process, particularly as he is keen on setting his schedule well in advance of attending the Show.
"I like to plan ahead on what I'm going to see and do - time is valuable when you own a company and it's important to get everything out of it that I can," Clamens explained. "AHR Expo is really great - especially compared to other shows - about providing access to seminar and exhibition information, before the event on their website, and during the Show with the mobile app and signage."
For those like Calvin Shwiyat, contractor and owner of William Enterprises in Tulsa, AHR Expo has come to serve as a forum for making important new business decisions.
"I attend AHR Expo to find new products and see technologies I may possibly want to represent as a dealer," Shwiyat said.
"AHR Expo does a good job of facilitating its attendees' ability to see and recognize the latest and greatest in the industry," agreed Stephen Maneggio, principal at Abbey Air Conditioning Services Inc. in Massapequa, N.Y.
"It's not enough to have technicians just attending school - the only way to make a good technician is by experience and hands-on training," Maneggio shared. "AHR Expo helps in this effort by showing what technicians need to train on and be familiar with in the actual field."
Attending contractors additionally emphasize the value of networking opportunities - both at formal events and informally throughout the course of the Show - provided at AHR Expo.
"It's great to be able to get together with people I know in the industry from around the country every year," said Kevin Waskielewski, owner at Apollo Unlimited in Easton, PA. "No matter how technologically advanced we get, direct contact with people remains an important part of this business. Events are an important part of the networking and relationship-building process - they make contractors feel important and acknowledged for the work they do from a distance most of the year."
According to Wakielewski, the benefits of networking at AHR Expo extend beyond relationships and into providing real-world feedback to HVACR manufacturers and technology developers.
"It is crucial for manufacturers to understand how their products really work in the field, and AHR Expo is undoubtedly the place where contractors have the opportunity to give that kind of feedback," Wakielewski said.
With clear consensus from across the mechanical contractor community, AHR Expo is consistently viewed as a "must-attend" event for HVACR industry professionals.
"I wouldn't dream of missing 2016 in Orlando," shared Clamens. "I'll be coming back from Trinidad the weekend beforehand and driving up first thing Monday morning."

The Federal's pistol slid into its holster and his sabre flashed out. He threw its curved point up in a splendid salute. Ferry saluted with his straight blade. Then both swords rang back into their scabbards, and Jewett whirled away toward his column. For a moment we lingered, then faced to the left, trotted, galloped. Over the fence and into the road went he--went I. Down it, as we crossed, the blue column was just moving again. Then the woods on the south swallowed us up. "All right, sir." that before. Meanwhile the parallelism between Thought and Extension was not exhausted by the identification just analysed. Extension was not only a series of movements; it still remained an expression for co-existence and adjacency.412 Spinoza, therefore, felt himself obliged to supply Thought with a correspondingly continuous quality. It is here that his chief originality lies, here that he has been most closely followed by the philosophy of our own time. Mind, he declares, is an attribute everywhere accompanying matter, co-extensive and co-infinite with space. Our own animation is the sum or the resultant of an animation clinging to every particle that enters into the composition of our bodies. When our thoughts are affected by an external impulse, to suppose that this impulse proceeds from anything material is a delusion; it is produced by the mind belonging to the body which acts on our body; although in what sense this process is to be understood remains a mystery. Spinoza has clearly explained the doctrine of animal automatism, and shown it to be perfectly conceivable;569 but he has entirely omitted to explain how the parallel influence of one thought (or feeling) on another is to be understood; for although this too is spoken of as a causal relation, it seems to be quite different from the logical concatenation described as the infinite intellect of God; and to suppose that idea follows from idea like movement from movement would amount to a complete materialisation of mind; while our philosopher would certainly have repudiated Mr. Shadworth Hodgson’s theory, that states of consciousness are only connected through their extended substratum, as the segments of a mosaic picture are held together by the underlying surface of masonry. Nor can we admit that Spinoza entertained the theory, now so popular, according to which extension and consciousness are merely different aspects of a single reality. For this would imply that the substance which they manifest had an existence of its own apart from its attributes; whereas Spinoza makes it consist of the attributes, that is to say, identifies it with their totality. We are forced, then, to conclude that the proposition declaring thought and extension to be the same thing570 has no413 other meaning than that they are connected by the double analogy which we have endeavoured to explain. “Oh, he’s welcome to it,” Sandy cried. “I’ve turned over a new leaf!” “But—are they?” He pulled a wire out a trifle from the sheath. The sergeant spent more time upon the oaths with which he embellished the counter-question as to how he should know anything about it, than would have been consumed in a civil explanation. "Doctor, he can't die. He mustn't die," said Shorty in agony. "The regiment can't spare him. He's the best soldier in it, and he's my pardner."

"Holy smoke, look there," gasped Monty Scruggs, as a company of rebel cavalry came tearing over the hill in front, to the assistance of their comrades. "That's about it," answered Shorty disdainfully. "That's the way with all cavalry, dad-burn 'em. They're like a passel o' fice pups. They're all yelp and bark, and howl and showin' o' teeth. They're jest goin' to tear you to pieces. But when you pick up a stone or a club, or git ready to give 'em a good kick they're gone, the devil knows where. They're only an aggravation. You never kin do nothin' with 'em, and they kin do nothin' with you. I never kin understand why God Almighty wasted his time in makin' cavalry of any kind, Yank or rebel. All our own cavalry's good for is to steal whisky and chickens from honest soldiers of the infantry. The infantry's the only thing. It's like the big dog that comes up without any special remarks, and sets his teeth in the other dog. The thing only ends when one dog or the other is badly whipped and somethin's bin accomplished." "Mmm." Reuben started out of the half-waking state into which he had fallen. It was late in the afternoon, the sunlight had gone, and a wintry twilight crept up the wall. Maude the dairy-woman was looking in at the door. It was about a month subsequent to this, that one morning, as Turner was making the anvil ring with the ponderous strokes of his hammer, two retainers from the castle entered the shed, and delivered an order from De Boteler for his immediate attendance. Wat laid the hammer on the anvil, and, passing the back of his right hand across his forehead, to clear away the large drops that stood there, looked with a kind of smile at the men as he said, HoME泷泽萝拉四部和集下载
