Hearth, Patio & Barbecue Association
Hearth, Patio & Barbecue Association (HPBA) is a U.S. trade organization that represents hearth appliance manufacturers, designers and retailers.
Headquartered in Arlington, Virginia, HPBA hosts industry conferences,[1] lobbies for legislation at federal and state levels,[2] and provides data on sales and manufacturing output for the hearth industry.[3] HPBA has also worked with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to encourage the manufacturing and installation of hearth appliances that produce lower levels of air pollution.[4][5]
