GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. - A mechanical inspector's tools of the trade include codebooks and a great deal of knowledge and experience. Every so often, a refresher course on new mechanical equipment and systems is essential. That's where John Reilly comes in.
Reilly is the western Michigan district sales manager for Research Products Corp. He conducted a seminar on indoor air quality (IAQ) for members of the Mechanical Inspectors Association of Michigan (MIAM) at the group's fall conference in Grand Rapids in early September. The topic was "Indoor Air Quality, UV Lamps, Filtration." He told inspectors that he wanted to give them a "sense of indoor air quality and why it has become so important."
