MAEEP - Building Ventilation and Heat Recovery for HVAC Systems

Learn about ventilation requirements and approaches, and how heat/energy recovery can be used to increase efficiency of HVAC systems. This training is focused on commercial and institutional buildings and assumes some basic knowledge of HVAC equipment.

Agenda:

• Ventilation

• Introduction to Heat Recovery – Conserving Energy vs Recovering Energy and why you need to do both

• Energy Recovery Ventilation (ERV) Systems

• Hot Gas Reheat (HGRH) for Packaged RTUs

• Heat Reclaim Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) Heat Pumps

• Chiller Heat Reclaim

• Other Solutions - Water Source Heat Pump Loop, Stack Economizers for Steam Boilers, Plumbing Waste Water

Coffee and light breakfast will be available starting about 8am. Class will start at 8:30am. Buffet lunch will be provided.

Continuing education units (CEUs) will be available through UMass.
