SUMMARY:Refrigerants' Role in the Decarbonization Movement
DESCRIPTION:Electrification efforts are driving heat pump installations and as a result the use of refrigerants is increasing. Refrigerants\, which can cause climate and environmental harm\, need to be optimized for cleanliness and performance to meet decarbonization goals. Speakers will discuss the EPA’s hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) phasedown and how this regulation will affect refrigeration and space conditioning practices in commercial buildings.

SUMMARY:Exhaust Ventilation System Energy Conservation Measures for Savings
DESCRIPTION:Webinar description: Exhaust ventilation systems in commercial & large multifamily buildings are a vital building system with significant energy\, sustainability and occupant health & safety implications. Recent code requirements place increased emphasis on getting them right in both new construction and retrofit projects. This session explores how these systems work\, as well as some scenarios where they don’t work. It explores where to find these projects and how to integrate them into an overall “airside” energy and building performance project. \nLearning objectives \nAfter completing the webinar\, participants will be able to: \n\nExplain how exhaust ventilation systems really work in the field and the factors that contribute to their role in a successful project.\nIdentify good candidates for retrofit and the “pain points” that motivate action for building owners and operators.\nExplore the components in an overall solution that will achieve desired energy and building performance results.\n\nSpeaker: Thomas Holmes\, Aeroseal
