HVAC systems provide comfortable environments for living conditions. They are key piece of the infrastructure required to keep positive pressure within any building housing people. In an industrial setting they also must have detection systems to sense associated hazardous which could lead to potentially dangerous situations. HVAC systems contain inherent and potential dangers which must make operations, monitoring and proper handling of maintenance extremely important.
This course exposes participants to an overview of HVAC systems; the major components and associated safety systems. Important elements such as heat transfer systems, ventilation and air conditioning operations will also be covered to provide participants with a complete understanding of the underpinnings of these systems.
Participants will also learn about the key operational functionality and monitoring associated with HVAC systems. Critical topics including health, safety and environmental impacts of these systems will also be reviewed.
