ARLINGTON, VA — The Air-Conditioning and Refrigeration Institute (ARI) recently adopted an Internet-based virtual meeting system to help reduce the cost of member participation in standards development and to speed up the standards process.
According to the organization, the new system allows ARI section members to use their personal computers and a telephone to dial into the ARI/ PlaceWare website to either draft or edit standards in Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, and Excel Documents.
