“Carbon Monoxide a Clear and Present Danger” is designed to provide an understanding of the hazards inherent in carbon monoxide generation, testing procedures, an overview of combustion analysis, and the relation of building pressures to carbon monoxide generation. The manual is broken into three sections: carbon monoxide (CO), combustion, and pressure measurements. 

The “System Performance” manual helps technicians understand the proper techniques and procedures used to verify and optimize performance of HVAC systems. The manual is broken into four parts covering: airflow, critical charging procedures, psychrometrics, and combustion efficiency.

“Combustion Analysis & Fuel Efficiency” addresses carbon dioxide formation and release, carbon monoxide generation, thermal heat transfer, and flame temperature. It additionally provides steps and procedures to increase efficiency and reduce emissions. Readers should expect to increase their knowledge of the combustion process and combustion control.
