    Scenes from Some Opening Night Parties During AHR Expo

    Jan. 22, 2024

    Okay, so it's about 20 degrees outside and the wind is blowing off the lake. Do you think freezing Chicago weather stopped the HVACR party juggernaut on AHR Expo Eve? Not a chance!

    We visited several events offered by leading brands that welcome HVACR industry contractors, manufacturers, and distributors to the show before they set off to an intense week of walking and learning during the AHR Expo. There are also two photos from an afternoon tour of the former Cook County Hospital, which was co-hosted by Armstrong Fluid Technology.

    Have a look at Sunday night's people and places in the above gallery.
