Building Envelope Impact on HVAC Energy Use

How airtight are the buildings you're accountable for? What's the energy load and indoor air quality like in your buildings? The sole way to recognize this is to perform a study. Despite common assumptions, measurements have shown that typical U.S. industrial buildings aren't significantly airtight. In this three hour course, we present a recent simulation study on the impact of improving envelope airtightness in U.S. industrial buildings. You get documented, verifiable facts, report charts and graphs illustrating the findings, and a discussion from the report on the results of the study, Investigation of the Impact of Commercial Building Envelope Airtightness on HVAC Energy Use.
