2008 AIRAH Excellence

The Australian Institute of Refrigeration Air Conditioning and Heating (AIRAH) has been recognising excellence in the HVAC&R industry for many years.
This tradition will continue
in 2008: the 2008 AIRAH excellence awards are now open for nominations.
Award Categories
There are 5 categories of AIRAH excellence awards:
Sustainability – recognises a project that embodies excellence in the sustainable design of heating, ventilation, air conditioning or refrigeration.
Refrigeration – recognises a distinguished Australian product, project, invention or innovation.
Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) – recognises a distinguished Australian product, project, invention or innovation in heating, ventilation and air conditioning.
Future leader – recognises and encourages a professional under 35 years of age who has made a significant contribution to the industry
Apprentice of the year – recognises achievements and efforts made by an apprentice in the TAFE system, who has gone beyond normal expections.
The future leader and apprentice of the year categories are open only to individuals. All other categories may recognise the achievements of an individual, company, institution, or government authority.

national awards presentation dinner and coverage in EcoLibrium® and
