AHRI creates two new product sections for controls
The Air-Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Institute announced that its Controls Product Section will be divided into two new sections: Air Conditioning & Refrigeration (ACR) Electronic Controls and Gas Controls.
When the Air-Conditioning and Refrigeration Institute (ARI) and the Gas Appliance Manufacturers Association (GAMA) merged to form AHRI in 2008, sections from each association combined to form the Controls Product Section. While it encompassed all types of control products, in recent years it has focused more on gas control issues. At the AHRI spring meeting earlier this month, AHRI's board of directors approved a plan to divide the section into two discrete sections.
