Then, I would've had to explain where to find the log out link.

Just easier to give it to him.

Thank you to all involved for all of the work it takes in providing these resources to users of this site. There is a tremendous amount of work involved to organizing the information. The new subforum design is very intuitive and logical to me. As many others have already indicated, thanks again and great job!

Your application was approved and your membership now changed. Let me know if you have an issue viewing any of the private forums now. You may have to log off and back on as some have had issues viewing the EF before they do so.

It is great I have been in school for over a year and have a few months of hands on training out in the field. I really like it and learn things everyday. Every the guys that have been working in the industry for years learn new things all the time.

Will the rank of memebership be automatically upgraded upon reaching basic posting or we need to re-apply to get the upgrade to Professional Membership grade? :couch:

I too am fairly new to HVAC-3 years. I love making people comfortable. People are most often very appreciative of the work we do. Provided that it's done correctly and in a timely manner. It'll be a long time before they make a machine to take the place of refrigeration and heating technicians.

Morning all.

Logged in here just to check pro membership status and hopefully be able to cruise technical forums. Still no status update.

No early morning work today so just thought I'd glean some technical info.

Now while I am ordinarily impatient anyway, I read and understand the forum qualifications and procedures for one to be allowed into the technical forums, but hey, come on, is there no time line at all? A week? A month? Only during a leap year?

OK, the "acceptance committee" are all volunteers, so get more volunteers maybe?

Anyway, all others in similar limbo can now breathe a collective sigh of relief, I've vented for us all.:nopity:

Thanks for the response. BTW, I just noticed that someone from the committee actually visited my profile a few days ago.

Could that possibly be a light at the end of the tunnel? Oh no!!! It's a train!

Welome to HVAC-Talk cafeman59.

Access to the Professional forums...where most of the tech info is...requires that you have Pro Status. here's a link about applying for it:

http://hvac-talk.com/vbb/showthread.php?threadid=116113

For now, scroll way down to the open forums like General Discussion, Residential HVAC, Commercial HVAC, Refrigeration & Icemaking, etc. and get your post count up by joining in the discussions.

Questions: For thermal power plant building application, for low pressure duct design what is the design velocity across grills/diffusers? Max velocity at any point in the duct has been considered as 8m/s.
