The comprehensive document will combine ASHRAE 191P, Standard for the Efficient Use of Water in Building Mechanical Systems, along with WE-Stand, IAPMO’s Water Efficiency and Sanitation Standard.

The course will address the vulnerabilities in the design, construction, installation, operation, and maintenance of HVAC systems in universities exposed by the pandemic.

The group will address the critical subject of reducing greenhouse gas emissions associated with buildings.

The agreement defines parameters by which the two entities will discuss and share information about emerging research results and technologies in HVAC systems.

The conference, originally scheduled to be held June 26-30, 2021 in Phoenix, is now going to be held online in a virtual format.

The conference concluded with more than 1,800 people in attendance over three and a half days, and presentations from industry thought leaders from around the world.

ASHRAE recognized the outstanding achievements and contributions of members to the HVAC industry during the 2021 ASHRAE Virtual Winter Conference, Feb. 9-11.

McDonnell, who has 37 years of industry experience, is responsible for lead mechanical engineering project design, work planning and staff development in KAI's St. Louis office.

The hearing examined gaps in COVID-19 protection in transportation, lessons learned and next steps.

As the performance of many HVAC systems in buildings are still being evaluated, the ASHRAE Epidemic Task Force has updated its reopening guidance for HVAC systems to help mitigate the transmission of SARS-CoV-2.
