HVAC System Airflow and Static Pressure Diagnostics @ SCE Energy Education Center
May 22 @ 8:00 am – 12:00 pm

Class Overview

This session covers the science and application of airflow principles to the efficient operation of HVAC equipment. Many of the residential systems in California suffer from the inefficiencies caused by high static pressure. Included in this training is a hands-on portion designed to compare various filters, fittings and layout issues that cause high static pressures.

Hands-on Refrigerant Charge Measurement @ SCE Energy Education Center
May 22 @ 1:00 pm – 5:00 pm

Class Overview

A residential split system air conditioner undergoes its final assembly at the time of installation. An important factor is the amount of refrigerant in the system (commonly referred to as proper charging). Air conditioner energy efficiency suffers if the refrigerant charge is either too low or too high. This training is designed to assist Raters and HVAC technicians to properly perform a Refrigerant Charge verification. This is a Hands-on class with operational equipment. Please feel free to bring your verification equipment.
