Wow, the Jed Clampett from Beverly Hill Billies! I love that show although it is a little before my time (I'm 30 yrs old). Anyways, I appreciate your advice. I will not mention the salary so as to leave it as something negotiable

Yes I like Pawn Stars

Thanks I will look for them. I never really have considered them before.

Thanks for the comments! I will definitely consider what you said. I also looked at the median salary for an "HVAC Engineer", It is 61,000 for Columbia South Carolina. So what I have is about 25,000 dollars less than the median HVAC engineer. My reason for the proposition is that I know...

Thanks cdxx 139 And yes these sources are contractors, one was a senior estimator for HVAC equipment installation. Thanks for your answer.

I have heard from so many sources that the ventilation requirements for a building no matter what it is should be 15 CFM per person. However, I thought that that is what the ASHRAE 62 (1989) requirement says. Now we have the ASHRAE 62 (2010) requirement which says that for places of religious...
