V in HVAC – What, Why, Where, How, and How Much (Includes Basic Requirements of Standard 62.1-2022) (code 60)
8:00 a.m. – 11:00 a.m., JW Marriott Tampa
This course focuses on the basic requirements of ASHRAE Standard 62.1-2022 and covers the scope, application, and multiple compliance paths available in the standard, including the ventilation rate procedure, indoor air quality procedure, and natural ventilation procedure. Many of the standard’s general requirements apply regardless of the procedure used. The different application conditions for the ventilation rate procedure are also described, along with changes particular to the 2022 version of ASHRAE Standard 62.1. This course is highly recommended for all HVAC designers and engineers.

Designing and Operating High-Performing Healthcare HVAC Systems (code 63)
3:30 p.m. – 6:30 p.m., JW Marriott Tampa
This advanced course discusses the interactions of the key elements of high performance in healthcare, infection control, comfort, reliability, safety, maintenance, energy, and sustainability. Numerous energy conservation strategies will be considered in the context of achieving all the goals of a high-performing hospital. For example, the hardware and controls for the setback of temperature and airflow and the relationship to temperature, relative humidity, air exchange, filtration, and pressurization requirements are discussed.
Instructor: Don Burroughs, P.E., Member ASHRAE
Guideline 36: Best in Class HVAC Control Sequences (code 64)
3:30 p.m. – 6:30 p.m., JW Marriott Tampa
This course introduces the current version of ASHRAE Guideline 36, which focuses on variable-air-volume (VAV) systems. The discussion will include the research underlying the current sequences and ongoing and planned future research intended to develop additional advanced sequences for other HVAC system types. In this course, attendees will learn about the ASHRAE Guideline 36 sequences and how they improve energy efficiency, thermal comfort, and indoor air quality. Attendees will also learn how to specify sequences for this guideline.

NEW! Starting the Path to Net Zero Buildings Using ASHRAE 90.1-2022 (code 65)
2:30 p.m. – 5:30 p.m., JW Marriott Tampa
The 2022 version of 90.1 begins the Standard’s move to become a Net Zero Carbon Emission Code by 2031. This edition adds a new section, Chapter 11 Additional Efficiency Requirements. These additional requirements are above the prescriptive requirements but contain many options for compliance that demonstrate a possible path to net zero buildings. The mechanical section introduces the Total System Performance Ratio (TSPR) as an alternate path for compliance. This offers a whole new path to compliance using a system approach; not prescribed efficiency. The 2022 edition also includes a new informative appendix that can be used with Appendix G if a rating authority wants to use metrics other than energy cost, such as carbon. Appendix G also added Appendix J with performance curves to be used for part load equipment performance. This course covers the changes made in the 2022 edition including ways to reduce energy use in buildings and how you can use these strategies to move toward net zero energy use.

Humidity Control I: Design Tips and Traps (code 66)
2:30 p.m. – 5:30 p.m., JW Marriott Tampa
In commercial buildings, excess humidity, and moisture promote mold, mildew, and uncomfortable conditions for occupants. This course helps the designer achieve true control of humidity, rather than just its moderation. Topics covered include how to understand and easily estimate the major humidity loads that must govern the design of the system and how to make decisions about equipment size and configuration.

Humidity Control II: Real-World Problems and Solutions (code 67)
9:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m., JW Marriott Tampa
Based on ASHRAE's best-selling Humidity Control Design Guide for Commercial and Institutional Buildings, this course includes an in-depth discussion of moisture load calculations and how humidity control can be added to HVAC designs for seven different types of commercial buildings. The course also covers the effects of different humidity levels on thermal comfort, corrosion, mold growth, and airborne microorganisms—information that helps the owner and designer define the optimal humidity control level for each application.
