The PHCC Educational Foundation also has two representatives on the SkillsUSA HVACR Technical Committee, who assists with set up and contest judging. Plumbing competitors and their advisors participated in a tour of nearby Zoeller Pump Co. as a part of their contest experience this year, learning about how pumps operate and are manufactured.
