    2025-2026 ASHRAE SOCIETY THEME

    President Bill McQuade’s theme for the 2025-26 ASHRAE Society Year is "Healthy Buildings: Designing for Life."
    “Balancing energy efficiency with good IEQ ensures that buildings are not only environmentally sustainable but also conducive to the health and productivity of their occupants, creating a win-win situation for both people and the planet.”
    McQuade’s theme highlights the interplay between energy efficiency and IEQ and presents practical solutions to enhance air quality, thermal comfort, acoustics, lighting and water quality in buildings.

    President's Message

    Hello Everyone, 
    The Twin Tiers Chapter is excited to return to in-person meetings this month. Our February meeting brings us to Binghamton
    and the Bree Tree Factory, where Dylan Silvanic has organized an engaging program for our members. This meeting
    will also include our Past Presidents Night and History Night, as we honor our Life Members. 

    Looking ahead to March, we will host an informative tour of the Binghamton Airport, featuring their newly installed HVAC system. Our spring tours will conclude in May with a visit to Cornell University to tour a newly constructed project. More details will be shared soon. A special thank-you to Dylan Silvanic for coordinating these excellent tour opportunities. Spring also marks the start of scholarship season. Rick Sanguinito is once again leading the Scholarship Committee, and we encourage all eligible applicants to apply. Full details are available on our website. Thank you, Rick, for your continued dedication and outstanding work with the scholarship program. 
    As a reminder, April brings the Spring Engineering Symposium, coordinated by Kevin McKeon. A limited number of sponsorship opportunities are still available. The symposium will once again be held at Tioga Downs, with a virtual attendance option offered for those unable to join in person. Please contact Kevin with any questions. 

    Thank you to all our members for your continued support of the Twin Tiers Chapter. We will soon be seeking new Board of Governors and Committee Chairs for the 2026/27 year. If you are interested in volunteering, please reach out to any officer or BOG member. This is a great opportunity to become more involved in our local HVAC community.
