Labs21 Workshop: Low-Pressure-Drop HVAC Design
Formerly Part II of the Labs21 Advanced Course:
Laboratory Ventilation and Design
Want to lower your laboratory’s energy use? Consider heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) duct pressures. During this workshop attendees will learn various approaches to low-pressure HVAC system design that lower laboratory energy consumption. The workshop provides a range of design experiences and practices that reduce air delivery pressures by providing examples of "good" and "better" low-pressure design practices and case studies of their applications and energy savings in operating laboratories.
