ONTARIO, Calif. — The Radiant Professionals Alliance (RPA), formerly the Radiant Panel Association, has reached an agreement with the International Association of Plumbing and Mechanical Officials (IAPMO) wherein IAPMO will acquire key RPA assets, pending ratification of the agreement by the RPA membership. The RPA board has voted to recommend that membership support the agreement for the expanded benefits it will promulgate on behalf of the industry.
Aided by the assets acquired, IAPMO will be able to service the industry needs of the RPA membership as IAPMO does for the plumbing, mechanical, swimming pool, spa, hot tub, and solar industries, said IAPMO. The manufacturers, distributors, designers, dealers, and installers of radiant panel heating and cooling systems and components that are presently members of the RPA will have the opportunity to join IAPMO. According to IAPMO, with IAPMO radiant panel industry members will take part in an expanded scope of activity symbolized by an updated logo created by IAPMO.
