HVAC Retrofits

This month’s B2B focuses on the conversion of an existing 1 million-square-foot commercial office building’s record computer-aided drawings (CAD) to building information modeling (BIM) drawings. 

When I started out at an HVAC consulting engineering firm back in the 1960s, our services were primarily focused on hospital design engineering. Back then, steam system engineering was standard for those building applications.

One of the most valuable deliverables from a design and construction project are the as-built drawings (often referred to interchangeably as record drawings).

Is net-zero feasible? How will the HFC phaseout impact engineering firms? Herb Woerpel, editor-in-chief of Engineered Systems, gained some answers from the attendees of Daikin's recent Group Sales Meeting. 

This month’s B2B focuses on a new cooling tower to serve a pharmaceutical facility’s new process water system. This tower will be a closed-loop, evaporative condenser to operate 24/7/365.
