Founded
in New York in 1883 as the National Association of Master
Plumbing, and since 1963, Plumbing, Heating, & Cooling,
PHCC is the oldest construction trade association in
the country. And although the original founders probably
could never have envisioned just how technologically
advanced we have become, they must have had an inkling.
For their original motto still holds true today:
"
. . . to advance the science and art of our trade
by encouraging inventions, making known discoveries
and improvements in appliances, fostering an interchange
of thought, and eliciting and communicating the result
and experience of all. "
While
the actual physics of our industry will never change,
the technology and codes do so constantly. And while
in the past, being proficient at your trade was enough
to operate a successful business, today you must be
a savvy businessperson.Here at the PHCC of the Redwood
Empire, we understand that the integrity and success
of our industry depends on direct involvement on many
fronts.
Our
emphasis is on training, be it apprenticeship training,
service and repair classes, or business management seminars.
We're also active on the political front, both locally
and nationally, protecting our industry from unjust
legislation.It is in this spirit that we have brought
our efforts online.

We welcome any comments or suggestions that you may
have, even if you just want to say "Hi".
Enjoy your visit!
