US DOE Midwest Regional Weatherization Conference

HVAC 8 - HVAC: New & Emerging Technology

Thursday, August 17, 2006  ·  1:30 PM - 3:00 PM

Discover the latest technology weatherization programs can use when there is an opportunity to replace a heating or domestic hot water system. What effect do variable speed blowers have on the old duct system? Find out why and how heating and DHW system change outs should be considered an efficiency measure, not a housing repair. Get first hand information on air handlers, two-stage furnaces, condensing boilers, combo appliances, efficient space heaters, and more!
 
By attending this session, participants will
 
  1. Explore system interactions created by the installation of variable speed blowers on duct systems
  2. Identify new HVAC technology that is cost effective to use now, and recognize what is needed in order for systems to achieve the rated efficiency
  3. Discuss the latest trends in product development and technology
 
KEYWORDS: air handlers, burner technology, combo appliances, condensing boilers, controls, efficiency, high efficiency mobile home furnace, integrated systems, modulating appliances, two-stage burners, variable speed blowers, venting
