According

to show management, with more than 365,000 sq.ft. of exhibit space, the 2005 event is already one of the most successful ever. More than 1,800 companies have already reserved space.

"The Southeast represents one of the strongest HVACR markets in the United States," says Clay Stevens, president of International Exposition Company, which produces and manages the AHR Expo. "Due to climate diversity, the normal demand for heating, refrigeration and ventilation products is accentuated by the intense use of air-conditioning."

The show will feature two special product sections, the Building Automation & Control Showcase and the Software Center.

For those looking for educational opportunities, many of the Expo's endorsing associations will conduct free sessions on topics ranging from business management to technical developments, including building automation.
