SUMMARY:Heat Pump Design and Applications (2 Part Series) - WEBINAR - Spring 2025
DESCRIPTION:Part 2 of 2  \nThis is the second day of an intro level class that takes an in-depth look at heat pump design and applications.  It concentrates on the energy efficiency requirements for heat pump systems and reviews standards for A2L refrigerants and Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio 2 (SEER2) ratings. \nnstructor Bio:  \nLester Terrance\, HVAC/R \nLester Terrance has been active in the HVAC industry since 2003\, including 12 years in the United State Air Force\, seven of those years serving as HVAC Field Supervisor at the US Department of State. He is a licensed Master HVAC in the states of Maryland and Virginia\, an EPA Certified Universal Technician\, and an Authorized Overseas Certified Technician (Multi-stack). Lester is an HVAC Instructor and subject matter expert at D+R LEARN. Lester earned his AAS in Mechanical and Electrical Technology in 2013. \nAgenda: \n– Introduction and safety message \n– The mechanical refrigeration cycle \n– How heat pumps work \n– What do heat pumps save \n– Where can heat pumps be effective \n– What requirements are there for heat pump systems \n– What are the standard heat pump technologies and what is new \nThe objective of this course is that at the conclusion\, participants will be able to: \n– Explain the mechanical refrigeration cycle \n– Describe the heat pump modes of operation \n– List successful heat pump system applications \n– Identify energy efficiency requirements that relate to heat pump systems \n– Discuss the emerging heat pump technologies

SUMMARY:Packaged Terminal Heat Pumps
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we discuss how upgrading packaged terminal air conditioners to high efficiency packaged terminal heat pumps (PTHPs) can revolutionize multi-family energy use. In this webinar we will dive into the advantages and disadvantages of PTHPs\, their applications for both new construction and retrofits\, and the growing size of this emerging market. \n\n\n\nHeating and cooling systems are one of the biggest costs\, and source of emissions\, for multifamily properties. Join us as we discuss how upgrading packaged terminal air conditioners (PTACs) to high efficiency packaged terminal heat pumps (PTHPs) can revolutionize energy use in apartment buildings\, hotels\, and assisted living facilities. These self-contained units are installed below windows inside living spaces\, providing efficient heating and cooling. \nThis webinar will explore the advantages and disadvantages of PTHPs\, their applications for both new construction and retrofits\, and the size of this emerging market. Learn how PTHPs\, with advanced inverter technology and variable speed fans\, provide the same in-unit temperature control and outside air as PTACs\, while using up to 70% less energy. We’ll also discuss the quick and straightforward installation process\, which makes PTHPs a compelling\, cost-effective solution for property owners seeking to improve energy efficiency and tenant comfort. Finally\, we’ll explore efforts to bring PTHPs to colder climates with models that can work in temperatures well below zero. \nPlease join us on Wednesday\, March 12th to learn more about these simple high-efficiency units that can provide sizeable benefits. \n\n
