The following five issues were identified by the HVAC Sector Council as priorities in working towards the vision of a home performance industry in BC:
• Capacity Building: Availability of Trained Trades, Workforce Development, and Professionalism
• Quality Workmanship: Industry Reputation, Standards of Practice, and Installation Quality
• Advocacy: Connectivity to and Engagement in Utility and Government Program & Policy Design
• Advocacy: Effectiveness and Enforcement of Codes, Regulations, and Bylaws
• Market Growth: Consumer Demand and Quality Awareness
While the recommended actions in this Roadmap are specific to the HVAC Sector being discussed, each of the other Sector Councils identified their priority issues. The HPSC recognizes the many synergies between the sectors' issues, as shown in Table 2 below.
