The AHR Expo is returning to Atlanta this month for the first time since 2001, and show organizers and exhibitors are anticipating a show chock-full of the newest innovations in heating, ventilation, air conditioning, refrigeration, plumbing, radiant and hydronics, building automation, and more.

Each year, the AHR Expo donates the entry fees from the Innovation Awards competition.

This year’s Show features nearly 75 free sessions presented by industry experts from leading organizations.

AHR Expo announces 2019 innovation award winners for most inventive products, systems and technologies in the industry.

Next year’s Show will be held Jan. 14-16, 2019, in Atlanta.
