Agenda:

The Air District has changed the rule for new & existing boilers and water heaters! The Tech Session will provide you a summary of BAAQMD requirements for boilers and water heaters

• Regulation 9, Rule 6 only applies to new boilers and water heaters.
• Regulation 9, Rule 7 applies to both new and existing boilers.

All existing boilers, steam generators, water heaters and process heaters in specified size ranges within the BAAQMD must comply with the new standards. Owners found out of compliance are subject to fines. Compliance schedule requires 33% of devices at a single facility by the effective date, 66% one year later and 100% two years later. For emission requirements for any other fuel other than natural gas, liquid petroleum gas refer to Regulation 9, Rule 7.

Please plan on attending to learn the latest developments directly from the BAAQMD.

Speaker(s):

Dan Int-Hout III, FASHRAE
Chief Engineer, Krueger

Dan Int-Hout, ASHRAE Distinguished Lecturer & Chief Engineer, Krueger, is responsible for the presentation of technical data and advanced application engineering for the Grilles, Registers and Diffusers, as well as the VAV air terminals, produced by Krueger.

Dan has been in the Air Distribution research and design business since 1973, and has a Masters in Business Management from Central Michigan Univ., and a Bachelor in Biology & Physics from Denison University.

Dan originally joined Krueger in 1981, but has had several other jobs in the industry, including Owens Corning Fiberglas, Carrier, Titus and Environmental Technologies, in engineering, marketing and product research roles.

Dan has written over 40 technical papers and articles on VAV system performance, acoustics, air diffusion, controls and occupant comfort. He was recently Chairman of both ASHRAE Technical and Standards Committees on Thermal Comfort, is a past Chairman of several other related ASHRAE Technical and Standards Committees, as well as ASHRAE Standards, Technical Activities Committee (TAC). & Environmental Health Committees. He received the ASHRAE Distinguished Service Award in 1993 and the Exceptional Service award in 2007. Dan is currently the Chairman of the ARI committee on Applied Acoustics (885) and Chair of ISO 205 US Panel on Thermal Comfort. Dan was installed as an ASHRAE Fellow at the Long Beach meeting in 2007, and is an ASHRAE Distinguished Lecturer.

Presentation
Summary:

Subjects:

LEED: V3 is out, and many are not aware of some significant changes that have resulted in air distribution, IAQ and Comfort requirements.

Air Distribution: Selecting components and system for effective room air distribution. The Pros and Cons of new systems such as Displacement, Under-floor and Chilled Beams need to be understood.

Thermal Comfort: Determining optimum occupant comfort strategies. ASHRAE Standard 55 has been revised.

Acoustics: Accurately predicting end use environments. A new classroom acoustical requirement needs to be understood.

IAQ: The changing face of ASHRAE Standard 62.1, and upcoming developments.
