For the health and comfort of the building’s occupants hvac systems must provide the correct amount of airflow into and out of conditioned spaces to ensure acceptable temperature, humidity and volume of cooling, heating, and ventilation air.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRecently there have been discussion about changes to percent of outside air (OA) aka fresh air, air changes per hour, and room pressurization in buildings. The amount of ventilation air (outside air) was at one time approximately 10%.  This means that the mixed air going into and through the HVAC filters, cooling coils, heating coils, and into the conditioned space as supply air was  90% return air volume and 10% OA volume. As energy costs increase there is a push-pull between energy management and indoor air quality. An increase in energy cost means the cost to heat and cool the OA goes up. On the energy management side, when energy cost increased the percent of OA was lowered In some buildings to 5%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd buildings were built tighter, with non-operable windows and we had sick building syndrome in the 1980’s and 90’s. Then the OA percentage went back to 10-15%, and sometimes higher, 20% OA. Whatever the amount of ventilation air is required for a particular system and time it is the test and balance people that test and set that requirement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e Office buildings are typically designed for 5 to 10 air changes per hour (ACH). With less than 5 ACH occupants may complain that the air is stuffy or that they detect body or equipment odors. More than 10 ACH may cause drafts and occupants, especially workers seated at a desk, may feel cold air movement across their bodies. Many hvac engineers design for 7.5 ACH. Medical authorities have called for more air changes per hour in office buildings, schools, etc.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e In some buildings room pressurization may be a critical factor. An example is a hospital where the operating rooms must have a positive room pressure and intensive care units (ICUs) may require a negative pressure. Other buildings with special conditioned spaces that require either a negative or a positive pressure are labs and clean rooms facilities. The typical office has a slight positive pressure and room pressure is not tested.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e In this course you will learn about testing and balancing the ventilation air, the return air, and the heated and cooled supply air for each conditioned space’s air volume in cubic feet be minute (cfm), air changes per hour (ACH) and room pressurization and how to make changes when required. Whether it is conditioned space air volume, air changes per hour, or pressurization it is test and balance professionals that do the testing and make changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCourse Objectives\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLearn:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe major air side components in an HVAC system.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeneral HVAC and test and balance terminology.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe four centrifugal fans used in HVAC systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe instruments used in test and balance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe report forms used in test and balance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBasic test and balance calculations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnderstand: \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow to do a field inspection.                                                                                      \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow to test fan and duct pressures.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow to change airflow at fans and in the air distribution system.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow to Test and Balance Constant Air Volume Systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow to Test and Balance Variable Air Volume Systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow to recognize when a test and balance report may have inconsistencies.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTopics:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIntroduction to Test and Balance of HVAC Air Systems and Terminology\u003cbr\u003eHeating, Ventilating, and Air Conditioning Systems\u003cbr\u003eTest and Balance Procedure\u003cbr\u003eTest Instruments and Test Report Forms\u003cbr\u003eField Inspection\u003cbr\u003eTesting Fan Speed\u003cbr\u003eTesting Fan Pressures\u003cbr\u003eTesting Duct Pressures\u003cbr\u003eBalance Report Forms\u003cbr\u003eSetting Volume Dampers\u003cbr\u003eSetting Temperature Controls\u003cbr\u003eTerminal Velocity Instruments\u003cbr\u003eTerminal Volume Instruments\u003cbr\u003eBalancing Constant Air Volume (CAV) Systems\u003cbr\u003eBalancing Variable Air Volume (VAV) Systems\u003cbr\u003eFinalize Test and Balance\u003cbr\u003eTest and Balance Math\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis course is for HVAC and facility or maintenance engineers, managers, and technicians, energy and indoor air quality managers or professionals, and any related professionals interested in knowing how to: Make or call for changes to increase or decrease airflow for room supply and return air volume, air changes per hour, pressurization, and ventilation.\u003cbr\u003eDo air test and balance.\u003cbr\u003eUnderstand the test and balance reports.

Energy savings are sometimes hard to quantify since they represent the absence of energy usage.
