About ASHRAE British Columbia Chapter

The British Columbia Chapter of ASHRAE is now in its 65th year, being chartered on April 9th, 1952, with the inaugural meeting and formation of the BC Chapter of the American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers (ASHVE). Society President Ernest Szekely presented the Charter, at the Quadra Club in Vancouver, on April 9,1952. There were 36 Charter Members, headed by our first Chapter President Eth Minaker. These 36 pioneer members had the forsight to establish a Chapter that grew to over 600 members, produced several Regional and Society representatives, spun off another Chapter, and still remains a strong and active Chapter after 6 decades from its beginnings. ASHRAE is a global society advancing human well-being through sustainable technology for the built environment. The Society and its more than 56,000 members worldwide focus on building systems, energy efficiency, indoor air quality, refrigeration and sustainability. Through research, standards writing, publishing, certification and continuing education, ASHRAE shapes tomorrow’s built environment today. More information can be found at www.ashrae.org/news.
