About the chapter
The Bluegrass chapter serves ASHRAE members in central Kentucky, including HVAC and refrigeration design professionals and equipment manufacturers.

CTTC
The Chapter Technology Transfer Committee runs local technical programs, seminars and the chapter's recognition of high-performance building projects.
Student branches
Chapters sponsor student branches at nearby engineering schools and support scholarships and career events.
Research Promotion
Chapters raise funds for ASHRAE research that feeds the society's standards and handbooks.
Grassroots Government Activities
Chapters track local building-code and energy-policy issues and connect members with policymakers.
Certifications
ASHRAE offers professional certifications such as BEMP, BCxP, HBDP, HFDP and OPMP; chapters often host review courses or exam-prep sessions.
