CIPH Changes Name of Plumbing Industry Advisory Council​

June 12, 2017

The Canadian Institute of Plumbing & Heating has announced that its board has voted to change the name of the Plumbing Industry Advisory Council to the Plumbing and Mechanical Advisory Council

According to a press release, the council has evolved over the years to incorporate more mechanical, heating and energy aspects along with plumbing issues as the group addresses policy alignment, harmonization, timely automatic adoption of model codes, and North American Regulatory cooperation.

"The new name the Plumbing and Mechanical Advisory Council reflects a better scope of the council’s work as it has evolved over the last decade to include plumbing, heating, hydronics, wastewater and mechanical systems particularly their interactions in policy, codes and regulations" reports CIPH Chairman Bill Palamar.

With anticipated federal policy changes regarding Climate Change the Council decided to further reflect the policy development and technical support work with a name change to add in the mechanical aspects to further enhance and represent CIPH members’ interests.

“PMAC has become a critical Council within CIPH as the go-to industry organization for critical input, analysis, consultation and commentary on emerging policy, codes and regulations. Natural Resources Canada, the National Research Council, and other key federal and provincial departments have become key allies to CIPH and the change allows us to better serve the industry and the government” reports Kevin Ernst, PMAC Chairman.
