Not your grandad’s VAV: What’s new in rooftop VAV systems
Learn about the changes to variable air volume systems, including using AI
ATTENDEES ARE ELIGIBLE FOR A CERTIFICATE OF COMPLETION.
Variable air volume (VAV) systems have been a longtime industry staple for their ability to provide localized HVAC comfort to serve various occupant needs throughout a building. But today’s rooftop VAV systems do not perform like the VAV systems of the past. New equipment technologies, control strategies and artificial intelligence (AI) have made VAV systems more efficient and environmentally friendly while optimizing comfort and enabling tenants more control over the spaces they occupy.
Mechanical engineers should understand VAV system principles and benefits including improved performance, low-global warming potential refrigerants, optimized indoor air quality, occupant comfort and control and AI-enabled services.
Learning objectives:
- Review design principles and components of rooftop VAV systems.
- Identify the advantages of rooftop VAV systems.
- Learn about solutions that can help your clients manage comfort in their space.
- Understand how rooftop units will be impacted by the upcoming refrigerant transition.
- Hear a real example of AI technology applied in a rooftop VAV application.
