President's Letter 

 

Dear Friends,

 

I'd like to begin by taking a moment to publicly thank our Water Heater " Panel of Experts" who were willing to share their time and experience with us at our last lunch meeting on Nov. 19th.  Mark Reed w/MMI-Bradford White, Steve Schultz w/Output Sales-Rheem-Rudd, Ken Shockley with Battersby Danielson-AO Smith-State, and Jim Lyon w/S15-Lochinvar.  They all did an outstanding job helping our membership better understand the changes we will be facing next year in regard to the water heater industry.  Their service to the industry is appreciated and valued by our membership. 

 

The Greater  Indianapolis PHCC has many exciting opportunities planned for 2015.  Our January lunch meeting promises to be informative as we consider the changes that will take place in the Fuel Gas Code.  We again will have a group of experts in the industry to help us understand how best to respond to these changes.  I hope to see you all there.

 

I would also like to thank those who serve on the GIPHCC board of directors.  Bill Fite, Fite Plumbing; Jamie Carter, Carter's My Plumber; Dave Nance, Nance Plumbing; Dave Heffner, Heffner Plumbing; Eric Damon, Kellie Plumbing; Cathy Stegemoller, Steg Plumbing; Keith Smith, K2 Plumbing; Frank Bruggner, Viega Co.; Joe Denzio, Plumbers Supply Co.; and Mark Fasel, Town of Fishers.  Thank you all for your dedication and care for this organization and our industry.

 

Well, this year is almost over.  This is a great time to reflect on the things that matter most.  I saw a sign this week that read "Be sure to love the people God gave you; someday He's going to want them back."  I hope you will take time this holiday season to give your attention to the people in your life that you care about.  We are all so busy that I think sometimes the ones closest to us don't get their fair share of our time and attention.  Best wishes to you.  Merry Christmas and the best in the New Year.

 

 

Brian Lebo,

GIPHCC President
