SUMMARY:(On-Demand) Ductwork - The Most Overlooked Aspect of HVAC
DESCRIPTION:Provided by CaptiveAire\n1 CEU provided \nSpeakers:\nBill Griffin\, German Tabor\, Kyle Thompson\, Nick Perry \nCourse Description:\nNobody cares about ductwork. Should you? Absolutely.  We’ll show you why as we explain proper air diffusion\, leakage\, condensation\, and the impact ductwork has on equipment selection and performance. If you’re still thinking of airflow in terms of 400 CFM per ton and traditional diffusers\, this is the video for you. \nPrerequisite Knowledge:\nNone \nLearning Objective 1:\nUnderstand the purpose of air diffusers\, how air moves in a space\, as well as the distinction between traditional and high induction systems.\nLearning Objective 2:\nUnderstand the importance of thorough duct design in a building and the negative impact\nof field changes and leaks in a duct system.\nLearning Objective 3:\nUnderstand how duct design can affect airflow requirements and equipment selection.\nLearning Objective 4:\nUnderstand duct condensation and how smart HVAC controls can prevent it. \nVideo link:\nhttps://youtu.be/7uQtCyIHIJ4
