Chillers, Refrigerant Compressors, and Heating Systems

Packaged air conditioning and heating systems represent a significant percentage of the energy consumed for primary HVAC in the United States. This course reviews the primary components of packaged HVAC systems and evaluates the energy consumed by their main components. It presents a baseline energy usage estimate for the country and a method to calculate the energy consumption of equipment as well as a means to identify potential energy savings.

Once you complete your course review, you need to take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of thirty (30) questions to earn 6 PDH credit.
