WELCOME to the 2021 ASPE Tech Symposium!
Dear 2021 ASPE Tech Symposium Attendee,
Welcome to San Diego! ASPE’s Board of Directors thanks you for joining us for
our first in-person national ASPE event in two years. We hope you enjoy seeing
your ASPE friends once again and find the 2021 Tech Symposium to be a very
valuable experience, both professionally and personally.
The industry’s manufacturers have been very supportive of ASPE in the past year, and I’d like to thank our
generous Sponsors/Exhibitors who helped sell out the Product Show in record time. The Product Show will
be two days once again, so you have twice the time to mingle with our Sponsors/Exhibitors to learn all about
their new products and services. Please be sure to thank them for their support of ASPE and the plumbing
engineering profession.
We once again are holding an ASPE Young Professionals (AYP) Leadership Academy, sponsored by Zurn. It
is called “Dynamic Tools to Lead at Every Level” and will help participants learn how to bring out the best in
themselves and team members. The speaker has a lot of fun, interactive activities planned, so I’m sure it will
be a very exciting day. AYP also is hosting a networking event for attendees 35 years old and younger, which
will be held at Park & Rec.
On Friday evening I invite all attendees to join us at the Welcome Party sponsored by Charlotte Pipe &
Foundry Co. We will be gathering by the pool at the host hotel for light snacks and drinks, where everyone
can get reacquainted and make new ASPE friends.
The Technical Education Program, the cornerstone of our Tech Symposium, will be held on Friday through
Sunday. Each of the 40 sessions is presented by experts in their fields who are eager to share their
knowledge with you. Don’t forget to submit the quiz at the end of each session you attend so you can get
CEUs for your CPD or CPDT recertification or PE license. You can find information on how to do this later in
this show guide.
Several of our committees will be holding meetings on Friday and Saturday mornings, and I encourage
all attendees to participate in at least one or two to learn about the exciting initiatives these groups are
planning. Also, on Saturday we will honoring our outstanding ASPE Chapters and members during the Lunch
& Awards Ceremony.
In closing, I’d like to thank our amazing Staff for all of their hard work in planning this year’s Tech Symposium,
as well as our San Diego Host Chapter for their hospitality. I also want to thank our Co-Chairs, Grant Schaffer,
LEED GA, and Anthony Wikum for their dedication to our Tech Symposium.
I hope you have a very enjoyable and educational time in San Diego at the 2021 ASPE Tech Symposium!

Why Settle for Pretty Good?
Introducing Guardian’s New Thermostatic Mixing Valves
for Emergency Equipment
Guardian Equipment is pleased to introduce our new line of thermostatic mixing
valves for emergency eyewash and shower equipment. These valves offer better
performance and more standard features than any other valves on the market.
High Capacity Guardian valves deliver the highest flow rates in the industry. In
an emergency, contaminants are rinsed away quickly and completely.
Fast Response Time Guardian valves respond to changes in water
temperature instantly, protecting the safety of the user.
High Supply Pressure Differential Most emergency equipment TMVs require
the hot and cold water pressures to be within 5 – 10%. Guardian valves provide
the required flow and temperature even with differential pressures of up to 25%.
Low Profile Guardian valves have a slim profile. They can be installed in
a standard 3-5/8” partition wall or any other tight space. Valves can also be
installed in surface mounted or recessed cabinets.
More Standard Features Valves include a temperature gauge, wall mounting
