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.
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.
Description:
This full day training class is designed to introduce HVAC Contractors, General building Contractors, and Mechanical Engineers to the process of sizing, designing and installing small Commercial HVAC package unit systems. This class includes three specific components: 1. Classroom instruction of the building science affecting equipment capacity and building loads. 2. Hands on training in the use of Wrightsoft™ to size small commercial loads. 3. Classroom instruction on the proper sizing procedures in ACCA Manual CS, and California Title 24 Ventilation Regulations.
Description:

This class includes four specific components. 1. Classroom instruction of the ACCA Duct Design procedure. 2. Classroom instruction on effects of CFM, velocity and pressure on duct desgins and general airflow terminology. 3. Duct sizing practice exercises. 4. Register selection and placement.
Description:
This full day training class is designed to introduce HVAC Contractors, General building Contractors, and Mechanical Engineers to the process of sizing, designing and installing small Commercial HVAC Systems. The training class includes two specific components. 1. Review of all objectives and priciples covered in the first two courses of this series. 2. Hands on software exercises guided by the instructor to verify students can properly design an HVAC package unit system for quality installation, as well as properly design the duct system.
