Last September, the American Society of Plumbing Engineers held its biennial convention in Chicago. The ASPE convention is the last of the great mega plumbing shows in the United States. All the other large plumbing shows have disappeared.
If PHCC and PCA of MCAA were smart, they would team up with ASPE. If the show had a large number of contractors as well as plumbing engineers, it would even be greater. While a number of contractors attended the ASPE trade show, it was small in comparison to contractor shows of old.
