SUMMARY:Webinar - Filtering Reality in HVAC Filtration
DESCRIPTION:Filtering Reality in HVAC Filtration\nWednesday\, January 7 | 12:00 – 1:00 PM ET \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAn ACCA Codes & Coffee Webinar\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAir filters often claim to solve a myriad of problems related to indoor air quality. What is true? What is hyperbole? What are some unintended consequences of “good” filters? \nTopics to be covered: \n\nHow much filtration do you really need? MERV 11?\nWhat is going on in “the industry?”\nASHRAE 62.2 – What is adopted by code? Is it enough?\nWhat are the barriers to good filtration?\nCode is the minimum. Is this good enough?\nWhat about wild fires and other pollutants?\n\nJoin our host David Bixby\, ACCA manager of codes\, and our panel of experts below. We’re going to discuss factors when choosing the right filter\, MERV ratings\, HEPA\, and strategies for filters with high resistance. \nEd Janowiak\, manager of HVACR design education\, ACCA \nNick Agopian\, President\, Reviveaire LLC \nGeorge Laurito\, District Sales Manager\, AprilAire \n\nREGISTER HERE
