This week Iaqradio will have another one of their signature “Fireside Chat” shows with an industry pioneer and iconic personality. John Downey is well known to our listeners from his appearances on the show over the years in his former role as the former editor of the IICRC Journal and more recently in his new role as the Executive Director of CIRI.
Today on Iaqradio+ we welcome Ed Light and Paul Haas. They’re CIH’s but actually work with contractors to solve building problems! The “dynamic duo” (Ed and Paul are with the Indoor Air/Mechanical Engineering consulting firm, Building Dynamics), will address elusive questions such as, “Will mold grow here?” and “What do these moisture readings mean?” We are also going to have a special musical introduction from Ed Light.
