The HVACR industry has gained a new unwanted condition that, until now, has been very difficult to treat. We have seen crazy videos of slime snakes being flushed out of condensate lines in Florida. and mushroom looking blobs in the Carolinas. We have heard stories of using bleach but it is only temporary and will deteriorate metals and plastics. What is it? And how do you treat it? That's what our resident Research and Development Chemist, Fallon Dyle, is here to deliver.

Gen Z and Gen Alpha offer a tremendous opportunity for educators and contractors. They may look different than previous generations, but they have a LOT to offer! The pandemic and the ensuing âGreat Resignationâ meant shifts in culture and what these younger generations expected from jobs. No longer would they tolerate outdated working practices and company cultures. They wanted more training, more growth opportunities, and more opportunities to make a difference. To be a top placing program, with top performing contractors, we need to understand the needs of BOTH.
