Construction Week adds HVAC event

HVAC2015-logoUK: The organiser of the new UK Construction Week event at the NEC this October has added a dedicated HVAC section.

The launch of UK Construction Week (6-11 October 2015) was announced by organiser Media 10 last year following its acquisition of the Build Show. The event will span five halls of the NEC and include nine shows specific to the UK construction industry, the most high profile being the top contemporary home show Grand Designs Live.

The recently announced HVAC 2015 will run for three days from October 6-8. It is being supported by the contractors group B&ES and is hoping to attract over 8,000 visitors.
