ACCA Manual D @ SCE Energy Education Center, Irwindale
Mar 15 all-day

The course covers Basic concepts of duct design. Covers air flow dynamics and static pressures within the systems, defines and explains EL, friction rate, location, throw and spread of grilles, registers and diffusers. Includes a Software portion for Wrightsoft and will include Elite. The information covers efficiencies relating to design, installation as well concepts focusing on delivered efficiencies, operating points, fan and duct curves.

Hands-on Refrigerant Charge Measurement @ Johnstone Supply - Fresno
Apr 13 @ 8:00 am – 12:00 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 HERS 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.

Tue
Building Pressure Diagnostics @ SDG&E Energy Innovation Center, San Diego
Apr 19 @ 8:00 am – 12:00 pm

Class Overview:

The House Pressure Diagnostics class explains the principles of air pressure within a building and how to use these principles to diagnose airflow problems. Understanding the principles of airflow within a building can help a HERS Rater locate the largest infiltration leaks and help determine the air leaks that should be addressed first. The training class also demonstrated how to conduct a “duct leakage to outside” test and provides participants the opportunity to perform the test during class.

Reducing air leakage is an important part of nearly all existing home energy improvement programs. And the most important part of understanding and using house pressure diagnostics is that by reducing infiltration cost effectively it helps homeowners achieve energy and cost savings and improves comfort for the homeowner.

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.
