Promoting the HVAC&R industry

AIRAH has resources available to members and industry to help promote the heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration (HVAC&R) building services industry.

This includes material to help encourage young people to pursue opportunities in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) – part of our ongoing advocacy work around diversity and inclusion.

HVAC&R is a defining feature of our modern existence, but few people outside the industry talk about it. It keeps us comfortable and productive. It even keeps us alive.
