Ecolighten is pleased to be supporting FortisBC with its upcoming Trade Ally Network Trade Shows.

- Gathering HVAC contractor feedback and input that could inform future QA program design for FortisBC with specific focus on the potential for standardized commissioning sheet, contractor-led video inspections and other new approaches/ideas from HVAC contractors.
