INDIANAPOLIS — “The smart technology we are most familiar with in our business is the connected thermostat. As customer needs change and new business opportunities evolve, we will need to be better prepared with technology solutions.” That’s according to Jonathan Moyer, president of Plumbing-Heating-Cooling Contractors—National Association (PHCC). Moyer was president-elect of PHCC when The ACHR NEWS caught up with him; Joel Long, then-secretary of PHCC; and Hunter Botto, then-vice president of PHCC. All were readying to move on with new association duties during the PHCC CONNECT 2019 annual meeting, held at the Westin Indianapolis and Indiana Convention Center, Oct. 4-6, 2019.
Moyer is the president of Cocalico Plumbing & Heating, Denver, Pennsylvania. Long is CEO/president, commercial divisions of GSM Services, Gastonia, North Carolina. Botto is semi-retired from the Botto Brothers Plumbing & Heating firm of Hicksville, New York, and is a transplant to Bradenton, Florida. All shared their thoughts on several fronts for what will be required of PHCC members to remain competitive in both the plumbing and HVAC industries.
