How To Implement Demand Control Ventilation & Comply with ASHRAE Standards
Time: 2 pm – 2:50 pm CST
ASHRAE Standards 90.1 and 189P require demand control ventilation in some instances. ASHRAE Standard 62.1 allows demand control ventilation but places restrictions on its application. Many existing installations do not comply with the requirements of ASHRAE Standard 62.1. What is required and what strategies and technologies can be used to meet the requirements of all the standards?

Using ASHRAE Standard 62.1-2010 Multiple Spaces Equations
Time: 3 pm – 3:50 pm CST
Use of the multiple spaces equation is now a code requirement in many areas and is a requirement of LEED for any new building that uses multiple space ventilation systems. Why is the equation there? How do you use the equations? What are the two options? Does the system approach make a difference in the quantity of outdoor air required? This presentation offers answers and discussion points for these important questions.

Retro-commissioning for Energy Savings
Time: 4 pm – 4:50 pm CST
What is retro-commissioning? Is it required by LEED? How can a process save energy? What are some of the aspects of an energy saving retro-commissioning application? What guidance is available from ASHRAE guidelines? What are the types of savings from the process and what are the critical components to assure that savings are realized?
