Cold-Climate Heat Pumps for Extreme Conditions: An Alaska Case Study

November 16, 2026 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM (EST)

Description

Join Midea Residential Air Conditioning and the Mechanical Contractors Association of Canada (MCAC) for a webinar exploring a real-world cold-climate heat pump installation in Alaska. The session will open with a video highlighting the project, followed by a discussion featuring David Rames, Senior Manager, Product Promotion & Development for Midea Residential Air Conditioning, and Maddie Davidson, the General Manager of Davidson Bros Mechanical Contractors Ltd.

Together, they’ll examine how modern heat pump technology performs in extreme cold, key considerations for cold-climate applications and practical takeaways contractors can apply to projects across Canada.

David Rames is Director – Technical Sales for Midea Residential Air Conditioning. Based at the Midea America Research Center (MARC) in Louisville, Kentucky, he works closely with contractors, distributors, builders, and industry organizations to support the adoption of advanced heat pump technology across North America. With extensive experience in HVAC product development, commercialization, and contractor engagement, Rames frequently speaks on topics including cold-climate heat pumps, electrification, multifamily applications, workforce development, and emerging HVAC technologies.

Maddie Davidson is the General Manager of Davidson Bros Mechanical Contractors Ltd., a family-owned mechanical contracting company serving British Columbia’s Lower Mainland since 1976. With nearly two decades of experience, she oversees business operations, service delivery, business development, and team leadership. Her work combines practical industry knowledge with a focus on building strong teams, improving processes, and maintaining lasting client relationships.

Maddie holds a Bachelor of Business Administration and Project Management Professional (PMP) certification. She serves on the boards of the Mechanical Contractors Association of British Columbia and the Mechanical Contractors Association of Canada, and is National Chair of MCAC’s Women in Construction Trades Committee.

A committed advocate for women in the skilled trades, Maddie champions mentorship, representation, and opportunities for women at every level of construction—from the field to senior leadership. She is passionate about helping shape an industry where people can see a future for themselves and have the support to pursue it.
