HMC Achieves National Designation for Environmental Excellence

--Company One of Only 12 MSCA GreenStars in the Country--

ROCKVILLE, MD – The Mechanical Service Contractors of America (MSCA) announced that HMC has been awarded the MSCA GreenStar designation, which recognizes MSCA STAR qualified contractors who have met stringent guidelines for environmental responsibility throughout their companies. MSCA is the nation’s leading trade association for air conditioning, heating and refrigeration contractors with over 1,400 members across the United States and Canada.

MSCA GreenStar was created by MSCA to recognize mechanical contractors who offer a variety of services to deliver energy-efficient, cost-effective indoor environmental solutions to their customers. MSCA has been recognized by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) for its leadership and stewardship of sustainable practices in the HVAC industry.

According to Barbara Dolim, MSCA Executive Director, MSCA GreenStar helps MSCA members demonstrate their commitment to environmental stewardship. “By attaining MSCA GreenStar status, HMC has demonstrated their dedication to environmental issues by promoting sustainability throughout their entire organization and delivering the very best environmental solutions to their customers. We congratulate HMC as a leader in sustainable service.”

“We’re very proud of our MSCA GreenStar status,” said Wayne Turchetta, vice president of sales and marketing, for HMC. “MSCA GreenStar allows us to incorporate eco-friendly products and solutions into our business and lets our customers know we truly care for the environment.”

HMC has taken an active role in sustainability by implementing, in their own facilities, a recycling program, programmable thermostats, motion detectors for lighting, and low flush low flow plumbing fixtures. They are presently involved with several LEED registered projects including Ft. Knox, University of Louisville Biomedical Research Facility, and The Louisville Office Building. HMC has three LEED Accredited Professionals on staff, and has recently incorporated a GREEN Preventative Maintenance program that mirrors LEED EB (Existing Buildings) credits. They are not only members of the national and state chapter of the USGBC but have taken an active role on the Board of Directors, in the position of vice chairman, for the Kentucky State Chapter.

To qualify for MSCA GreenStar, a contractor must first qualify as an MSCA STAR contractor. MSCA STAR is a qualification program recognizing contractors that meet or exceed rigorous operating and training standards set by MSCA. To achieve MSCA GreenStar status, an MSCA STAR contractor must meet the following criteria:
