HVAC and Envelopes: Whole Building Performance Training 
Thursday, November 9, 2023 12:30-5:30pm ET & Thursday, November 16, 2023 12:30-5:30pm ET 
Virtual Seminar & Panel Discussion 
Note: attendance for both days is required to attain Continuing Education Credits. 
4 CEUs/AIA HSWs each training session (8 CEUs total) 
This training is for architects, engineers, preservationists, project managers, facilities management teams and others responsible for assessing HVAC retrofitting, upgrade and reinvestment alternatives for historic buildings, planning or reviewing HVAC-related studies, and managing or troubleshooting HVAC projects at historic buildings. This training will also explore other building envelope solutions beyond HVAC improvements as a means toward reducing carbon emissions.  
Attendees will learn to: 
▪    Minimize the impact of HVAC systems and upgrades on significant spaces 
▪    Integrate lifecycle goals and sustainability measures into HVAC studies and design documents 
▪    Identify common historic building HVAC design and operation pitfalls and solutions 
▪    Address HVAC-related moisture management challenges 
▪    Assess potential effects of building system and envelope improvements on historic building materials 
▪    Identify other building envelope solutions beyond HVAC improvements as a means toward reducing carbon emissions
