Diagnosing Comfort Problems in Homes

Thursday, April 11, 2024
9:45 AM – 10:45 AM  
Location: Room L100 IJ (Lower Level)
CEU Type(s): BPI, EA, InterNACHI, NARI, NATE
The first thing a homeowner is likely to complain about in a home is comfort problems.  These can be very difficult to diagnose if you don't know what you are doing.  It can be very easy if you have an HVAC design background. This class will cover how to diagnose comfort problems in homes using the same process that is used in designing an HVAC system.  This is essentially "reverse engineering" the system to see where the deficiencies lie.

Learning Objectives:

By attending this session, attendees will:
  • Understand how to identify the different comfort problems
  • Learn what the most valuable tool is for diagnosing comfort problems
  • Learn how to apply the HVAC system design process to diagnose comfort problems
