• HVAC system impacts on comfort, productivity, and indoor air quality
• Heat loss and cooling load calculations
• HVAC equipment and how it operates
• Define your requirements for a DDC system to serve HVAC and related building systems
• Know what the marketplace has to offer to meet your requirements
• Describe the hardware and software elements that make up a DDC system
• Construct a DDC architectural master plan for your requirements
• Describe the essential elements of a DDC system specification
• Define the application requirements for the building systems
• Plan for the commissioning of the DDC system
• Identify appropriate applications for chiller plants
• Recognize design criteria and select system components
• Evaluate and specify the control requirements
• Incorporate options for energy efficiencyAppreciate why a natatorium is a difficult facility to design, and reduce your designer risk/liability
• Understand critical design and installation issues that must be fully understood and properly addressed to ensure years of comfortable and trouble-free operation of the facility
