HRAI
Hydronic Radiant
Certification Course
Hosted by
Wolseley of
Canada. Four days of
study on thermal
comfort, fundamentals of
hydronics and radiant
floor heating designs
for residential systems.
For those working on
their RHWDT
certification or wanting
to expand their
knowledge on hydronic
systems. It is highly
recommended that
students have experience
in heat loss and
calculating differential
pressures in duct or
piping systems.
Week of
Mar. 26th – Calgary
Uponor
Engineering Conference
A three hour candid
discussion on radiant
cooling and heating: The
Do’s and “Do-not-do” in
commercial design and
installations ( a joint
presentation with Peter
Simmonds, Ph.D., ASHRAE
Fellow and DL, Head of
the Advanced Technology
Group, IBE Consulting
Engineers ).
Week of April 9th - Las
Vegas
The Ultimate Hydronics Learning Experience
Join Us in Providence in September 2012Join the nation's leading radiant and hydronics professionals for two days of learning, sharing, and idea generating at the brand new Hydronics Roundtable. Whether you are a seasoned radiant veteran or new to the field, you won't find a more useful, friendly, and engaging program anywhere else -- because it was truly created by contractors, for contractors! Check out the amazing speaker lineup.
Why
and How To Do Radiant
Cooling in High Humidity
Geographies (09/12,
8:00am)
Humidity is supposed to
be managed by the HVAC
system to control
pathogens (bacteria,
viruses) and allergens (molds
and dust mites); and to
promote respiratory and
thermal comfort for
occupants; and for the
dimensional stability in
hygroscopic materials
like wood. Hear the how
and why Robert Bean says
these are the reasons
why the condensation
argument on radiant
cooling panels doesn’t
hold water in high
humidity geographies.
Simplified Control
And Piping Strategies
For Reversible Radiant
Cooling And Heating
Systems (09/12, 9:30am)
Got a hot customer who
is cold or a cold
customer who is hot?
You’ve likely found an
effective way to ruin a
perfectly good day.
Preventing thermal cross
contamination and job
site migraines is
possible with simple
strategies but it takes
some number crunching
and knowledge of the
hydraulics of hydronics.
Robert will introduce a
very simple four
pipe/two pipe heat/cool
radiant strategy with
dedicated outdoor air
for making you and your
customers radiantly
happy and comfortable.
