PHCC—National Association and its leadership are extremely concerned about the deep freeze-related power outages and water shortages occurring in Texas, Louisiana and Oklahoma.

The PHCC—National Association has received calls from PHCC chapters whose PHCC members in other states are looking to also provide support to include potential emergency repair of consumers’ plumbing and HVAC systems if requested.

Discussions also are underway with our network of partners who may help us provide the type of assistance that our impacted PHCC members and/or PHCC chapter leaders determine will be of greatest value.

If you have an interest in providing assistance to these impacted states, please contact PHCC National at [email protected]. In the meantime, the PHCC Disaster Relief Fund is available for donations or to request assistance.
