PAST - Electrifying Mechanical Systems: Big Questions, Basic Questions

Join us for our fourth Building Electrification Clubhouse event, under the electrifying theme "Electrifying Mechanical Systems: Big Questions, Basic Questions." As we shift to all-electric buildings, HVAC systems stand out as especially challenging. This session – the first of many HVAC electrification discussions in the Building Electrification Clubhouse – will address some of the key questions:

• How do traditional HVAC installers develop and apply building performance approaches?

• How do I decide among a ducted forced-air system, mini-split, ducted mini-splits, and other options?

• How do we incorporate smoke and air filtration in efficient, all-electric systems?

• When and how is the best way to factor in building envelope upgrades?

• How do I explain the options to my customers?

Prepare to engage in a dynamic conversation that embraces the complexities of creating healthy, comfortable, and efficient buildings for all. This event promises to be a deep dive into the "it depends" of HVAC electrification, offering insights and solutions for professionals committed to sustainable building practices.
