We can’t believe it’s here, but the AHR EXPO, the biggest HVACR trade show in the US, begins next week in Vegas. Hope to see all of our industry friends there! We will be hosting our podcasts from the podcast pavilion so make sure you check podcasts times. Also, we will be hosting an AHR Panel series on the art of communicating in the trades, and mitigating the misinformation in room S222 on Tuesday at 2:30 PT.

Cold Weather Tips
We’ve gone through a stretch here over the past week or so that has seen the temperature drop to the negative teens for highs. And we’ve seen a ton of snowfall in the Northeast and middle mid-Atlantic states. I think ton is a meteorological term actually. Also, we’ve seen dangerous snow and icing conditions as far as far south as Florida and Texas. But did you know that caffeine makes you colder? Most of us love hot coffee on a cold day, but don’t depend on it to keep you warm. Switch to cocoa after the first cup or two. Caffeine constricts blood vessels, which can make your hands and feet get colder faster in colder weather. It can also mask early warning signs of cold stress like numbness or excessive shivering.
