President's Message

Dear Pittsburgh ASHRAE Chapter Members,

Thank you to all our members for your continued participation and support—it’s your involvement that keeps our chapter growing. It was great to see a mix of familiar and new faces at our first lunch meeting of the year.

Make sure to check in on our LinkedIn and website event calendar to see what's coming up. You can look forward to monthly meetings at new locations (our November lunch meeting will be at The Yard in Robinson), technical tours, happy hours, and even virtual participation options (like the October meeting shown above) to make it easier for everyone to join in and participate.

We’re committed to creating more opportunities for learning, networking, and camaraderie, and I look forward to seeing you at an upcoming event!

Warm Regards,

Star Lang
