UPDATED TO REFLECT THE LATEST CODES AND SPECIFICATIONS

ONE-STOP GUIDANCE ON DESIGNING EFFICIENT AND EFFECTIVE RESIDENTIAL, COMMERCIAL, AND INDUSTRIAL HVAC SYTEMS

Heres an all-in-one working tool for every phase of the HVAC design process – packed with a treasury of applications and invaluable on-the-job insights that reflect the authors half-century in the HVAC field.

Featuring todays only truly integrated approach to the subject, the Handbook offers thorough coverage of the latest technological and procedural advances in the design and installation of HVAC systems. The Fourth Edition offers completely updated code references, new coverage of energy conservation and digital control practice, and a greater focus on indoor air quality, including maintenance and operation.

Enhanced by more than 300 job-simplifying illustrations and tables, the Handbook provides HVAC design pros with everything they need to design, operate, and maintain peak-performing HVAC systems.

Book News Annotation:

A comprehensive reference primarily for designers in consulting or contracting contexts, but the information could also be useful to plant and facility engineers. The overview of the design process emphasizes such aspects as orderly procedures and good communication, and application over basic theory. Covers engineering fundamentals, design procedures, equipment, electrical features, documentation with drawings and specifications, the process from design through construction to operation, and technical report writing. No dates are noted for the previous editions.
