PAKISTAN HVACR SOCIETY

PAKISTAN HVACR SOCIETY A JOURNEY OF 27 YEARS Before the formation of Pakistan HVACR Society, HVACR activities were present in the country but the professionals working in the Industry did not have any a platform where all of them could sit together and share their ideas and experience for the growth and advancement of this vital Industry. The idea of HVACR representative body was conceived for the first time in 1993. At that time, National Institute of Technical Education (NITE) Islamabad - Ministry of Education, wanted to hold a national conference / workshop on Air- conditioning and Refrigeration Technology. In June 1993, they approached leading manufacturers, contractors, engineers and consultants associated with the HVACR Profession & industry. The basic idea was to consolidate and promote HVACR activities in the country. This objective appealed to all organizations associated with the HVACR field and full support was extended to NITE. It was decided to conduct a technical exhibition pertaining to HVACR products concurrently with a technical conference on issues & problems related to HVACR profession, trade & industry. It was decided to conduct the first Exhibition and Conference on October 23-24, 1993 at National Technical Teachers Training College (NTTTC) Islamabad. This event was a great success. The conference provided an opportunity to all the delegates associated with HVACR field to discuss the possibility of establishing a Society to look after the promotion of HVACR activities in the country. Subsequently, several meetings were held at Islamabad, Lahore & Karachi which were attended by delegates and HVACR professionals from almost all the major cities of Pakistan. In June 1994, a meeting was held in Karachi under the chairmanship of Mr. Anwar Saadat, whereby, it was decided to establish a Society to promote the interest of HVACR field in the country. This was the beginning of Pakistan HVACR Society.
