Designing an HVAC system for commercial buildings, public spaces, or other industrial applications is a complex process.
The ASHRAE 62.1 standard is critical to follow because of its focus: Along with the 62.2 standard, both determine ventilation system design, as well as acceptable indoor air quality (IAQ).
A plenum is a great alternative to traditional ducts, and ensuring your plenum stays free of dust ensures proper air circulation. If your HVAC plenum is dusty, it can cause problems with your entire system.
Building owners, facility managers, and commercial building tenants know the importance of keeping commercial HVAC running: If it gets too hot to work, productivity and profit both tank.
Air quality impacts productivity, especially in offices, and Underfloor Air Distribution Systems (UFAD systems) are a cost-efficient solution.
Addressing the heating and cooling needs of a building with underfloor air distribution isn’t new. In fact, underfloor air distribution (UFAD) played a prominent role in Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello estate.

The demand for heating and cooling systems is quite high: In 2018, it was estimated that the yearly demand for air conditioners in America was over 15.3 million units. Given such high demand, it makes sense to examine efficiency in systems by looking at static pressure, a common measure of efficiency and function within HVAC systems.
Despite uncertain times and ongoing supply chain management issues, the truth is that construction is still a lucrative field. According…
