How to provide specialised solutions within HVAC

Specialised, bespoke, customised, tailor made and made-to-order - synonyms for products that are modified, altered to standard and that probably won’t suit any other purpose than the exact one they are made for. Typically, an indoor climate solution is designed using a majority of standarised …

How are we meeting HVAC design challenges with passive climate ceiling systems?

Designing indoor climate solutions for modern buildings is a balancing act involving parameters that range from energy efficiency and acoustics to architectural integration and sustainability. Each design decision influences not only technical performance but also the comfort and well-being of the …

Wireless HVAC Communication – Simplifying Renovation

Renovating is typically a complex and costly endeavour, particularly when it comes to larger projects and renovations of heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC). We have previously addressed renovation in the context of buildings being preserved for cultural heritage or ducts being too …

Heating from the ceiling does work – chilled beams are key

The laws of physics may lead us to think that heating a space from the ceiling is impossible. However, our expert, Tobias Nordström, Product Manager Waterborne Climate Solutions at Swegon, will explain the principle of induction and why climate beams are an energy-efficient, sustainable and …

What is there to know about displacement ventilation in an industrial facility?

Factories have come a long way from being dusty and smoky environments where production took center stage, to being light, clean and comfortable workplaces where people are safe and productive. Our expert, Welat Han, Junior Product Manager, describes the evolution of the factory indoor climate and …

Variable geometry chilled beams for efficient variable air volume (VAV) systems

It has been almost 10 years since a CIBSE Journal CPD last discussed variants and applications of the ‘chilled beam’. In the meantime, the installation of beams has gathered pace, and they are now commonly seen in commercial applications. This CPD will revisit the basic functions of chilled beams, …

Displacement ventilation - a forgotten concept with huge potential

Have you ever wondered why some indoor environments cause discomfort and draughts despite being a large and open space, a classroom for instance? As experts in the industry of heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) the above is an obvious example of when the selection of ventilation …

2-step optimisation for energy efficiency and IEQ

A good indoor climate is fundamental for people to perform, rest and thrive inside built premises. However, energy efficiency is in nearly all cases on top of the agenda when designing an indoor climate solution – sometimes leading to a perceived conflict between indoor climate and energy …

The Crucial Role of Ventilation in Healthcare Facilities

Ensuring healthcare facilities are properly ventilated is the key to maintaining a safe and healthy environment for both patients and healthcare workers. With HVAC design and installation, there are many factors to consider. Although room terminal selection plays a significant role in the overall …
