Chilled beam systems allow for reheat to be ELIMINATED. They have been used successfully in Western European hospitals for decades. Chilled beam systems have no moving parts, no filters to maintain, are simple to design and operate, and are relatively... (More)
Minimize ReheatThe first of the 3 R's, REDUCE! Reduce loads and level the playing field to decrease the lift. Discussion topics will include minimizing reheat, displacement ventilation, control strategies, better zoning, building analytics, building envelope, and improved heat exchangers, among others.Â
Please share with us your other ideas to reduce the reheat load in a hospital.

One of the biggest things I learned working with the Europeans on the net-zero guidebook was that they shut spaces down at night.
They cut the air to the admin wing, they cut the air to the day clinics,... (More)
Hospital air systems require a significant design effort. Each space must be assessed for minimum outdoor air ventilation, minimum total ventilation, and pressure relationship. Kaiser Permanente and Mazzetti worked together on a California Energy Commissioning research project “Advanced HVAC Technology... (More)
