OPTTA Visits Canadian Mechanical and Plumbing Exposition

OPTTA was back at the Canadian Mechanical & Plumbing Exposition (CMPX) in Toronto this year from March 20th to the 22nd. This year’s show broke attendance records, so we would like to thank all members that stopped by the booth to say hello and take some time to discuss industry related topics.

As in past shows, OPTTA held a raffle draw for attendees that stopped in at our booth. The prize this year was for a Milwaukee M18 Sawzall, and I am happy to report that it was won by David Hatt of member company Bosanac Heating and Electrical Ltd. located in Hamilton.

CMPX show provides a rare opportunity to converse with contractors from across Ontario to share solutions and opportunities regarding oil burning appliances and equipment. I would also like to pass on a huge thank you to Matt Ward of Ward’s Heating who temporarily took over the OPTTA booth which allowed me to take a quick tour of the show and connect with a number of industry members to further the interests of OPTTA.

We look forward to attending other in-person events in the coming months to
continue to regularly engage with our members and industry colleagues.
