“We had an issue regarding the interpretation of regulations related to the installation of direct vent appliances so we called NEHPBA to ask for their help. Karen Arpino  quickly grasped the issue and thru her industry contacts the issue was quickly resolved. Thanks again to Karen and the NEHPBA.  We appreciate your responsiveness when we needed you! It’s a plus for our industry to have a voice supporting our interests.  Everyone in the hearth product industry should be a member!”

First of all, I would like to express my appreciation for all the hard work the board has done, and especially for bringing together such a helpful and informative conference.   The information presented was helpful, and the atmosphere was so positive.  And the food was fantastic and the venue was beautiful and comfortable.  So, please thank the board for me." - Carrie Swan, Black Swan Fireside Hearth & Home
