Career Tech IGSHPA Training

Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday (Nov 17,18,19 2009) I will be instructing an IGSHPA accreditation class for the HVAC instructors with the Oklahoma Department of Career and Technology Education. A great group and this will be good for Oklahoma as ground source is the topic of training.

Fairview, Oklahoma Electrical Rates

The cost of electricity has risen in Fairview in 2009. Expect more increases to come as the municipality spends and uses the income form the Fairview Utility Authority to pay off what the municipality has overspent in 2009.

Fairview, Oklahoma Electrical Rates

The electrical rates for Fairview have gone up. A business owner asked me to look into the rates billed to determine the accuracy. The billing was accurate. However, the new rates were not given to the community in a demontrative announcement. If you would like to see the rates they are attached so click here.

Okay, something new!

I will use this blog to inform others about ground source systems, what is new, innovations and industry moves.
One area of special interest is working on a vision for the International Ground Source Heat Pump Assoication. A group meet at Oklahoma State University on the 3rd and 4th of August, 2009, to take a look at where IGSHPA needs to be as our industry grows and changes.
The heat pump manufacturers (particularly ClimateMaster) strongly thinks IGSHPA should take on market positioning, marketing, and lobbying. I generally agree, but, research is needed. The group will recommend to the Advisory Council at the October, 2009 meeting information concerning each. The research will carry a recommendation to formally develope a lab with OSU. This I fully agree is immediately needed.
More later......
