F35 — Sustainability (I-P)

Click here to purchase

HVAC&R engineering design on projects concerned withperformance and sustainability requires understanding of and involvement withmore than just HVAC, including projected energy and water demands, stormwaterrunoff generation, waste generation, and air quality impacts. This chapter isintended to provide key information and identify reference sources for furtherresources on defining the energy, water, and other resource-consuming aspects ofprojects, and quantifying the relative environmental impacts of competing designalternatives. These aspects of sustainability are addressed with respect to energyand water conservation, greenhouse gas and air quality impacts, and otherimpacts of buildings, such as stormwater runoff and potable water use.
