Introduction to Region XI
In 1979 Region II and Region X were split to give birth to Region XI, a geographical monster of 1.89 million square miles, equivalent to 1/2 of the area of the USA. Including all of Canada west of Thunder Bay, Ontario, plus Alaska, Washington, Northern Idaho, and Oregon, Region XI has 3,000 members in 12 chapters. The Region is unique in containing both US and Canadian Chapters.
The scale of Region XI can best be understood by realizing that it includes three time zones, and that the flying distance separating our farthest Chapters is 3,200 miles. These distances are a real deterrent to visitors.

ASHRAE, the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers is an international organization of 50,000 persons with chapters throughout the world. The Society is organized for the sole purpose of advancing the arts and sciences of heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration for the public's benefit through research, standards writing, continuing education and publications.
Through its membership, ASHRAE writes standards that set uniform methods of testing and rating equipment and establish accepted practices for the HVAC&R industry worldwide, such as the design of energy efficient buildings. The Society's research program, currently more than 100 research projects worth nearly $8 million, investigates numerous issues, such as identifying new refrigerants that are environmentally safe. ASHRAE organizes broad-based technical programs for presentation at its semiannual meetings and co-sponsors the International Air-Conditioning, Heating, Refrigerating Exposition, the largest HVAC&R trade show in North America.
