SUMMARY:High Temperature and Hydronic Heat Pump Manufacturers Roundtable
DESCRIPTION:Several building types rely upon high-temperature (180F+) water for processes like hydronic space heating\, final-cycle dishwashing\, and sanitization. Until recently\, heat pump technology was limited to lower temperature applications. But the heat pump market is evolving rapidly\, and several products capable of producing 180F to 194F are now available for multifamily and commercial buildings like hospitals\, gyms\, and breweries. \n  \nJoin us on April 8th at 10am Pacific to hear from high-temp heat pump manufacturers and learn more about this exciting emerging technology.

SUMMARY:Drain Water Heat Recovery Manufacturers Roundtable
DESCRIPTION:Learn how drain water heat recovery can be combined with a heat pump water heater for efficiency and savings. \n\n\nDid you know it’s possible to recover 40-60% wasted heat from showering? Most households are simply pouring that hot water down the drain\, when they could be harvesting much of the heat energy. On Wednesday\, June 10\, we’ll dive into drain water heat recovery (DWHR) and how it can pair with a heat pump water for even better efficiency and savings. Join us to hear from some of the leading DWHR experts and manufacturers in an exciting roundtable presentation and discussion.

SUMMARY:Heat Pump Water Heater Permitting
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a webinar highlighting best practices and strategies for simplifying and accelerating HPWH permitting processes. \n\n\nUnlike other types of water heaters\, many heat pump water heaters (HPWHs) require a permit to receive available incentives. The time and cost of permitting HPWHs can be a barrier to adoption. \nBut some jurisdictions are making the process easier and more efficient by allowing contractors to permit their HPWHs without waiting half a day for an inspector to arrive on site. Join AWHI as we explore HPWH permitting best practices\, including minor label permits with sticker systems and random inspections\, virtual inspections\, guides for inspectors\, and reduced permitting costs. Making HPWH permitting as convenient as possible will help accelerate adoption of this key technology while still ensuring quality installations and happy customers.

SUMMARY:Power Up Your Skills: Split System Heat Pump Water Heater Training & Trade Fair
DESCRIPTION:Boost your expertise in split system heat pump water heaters with training and direct access to top manufacturers. \n\n\n\n\nThis special event features a presentation from a leading installer of heat pump water heater installations\, along with interactive training\, and a manufacturer trade fair during Heat Pump Water Heater Week. Event attendees will explore split heat pump water heaters (HPWHs) through an immersive learning experience featuring interactive instruction and a manufacturer trade fair. Participants will learn how split heat HPWHs work\, how they differ from conventional and integrated systems\, and what to consider when evaluating applications and available products. \nWhy is this important?\nBuildings account for 40% of greenhouse gas emissions\, making efficient water heating a practical opportunity to reduce energy use. Heat pump water heaters use 75% less energy than conventional water heaters\, meeting hot water needs while lowering energy consumption and emissions. \nSplit HPWHs are an emerging technology that separates the compressor from the tank and places it outdoors. Several manufacturers have released new products in the past year\, making this a timely opportunity for contractors\, students\, and other interested participants to understand the technology and explore available options. The event will be offered in person\, and the presentations will be livestreamed for virtual participation \nAgenda\n8:30 a.m. arrival onsite\n9:00 – 10:30 a.m. presentation from installation trainer for in-person and online attendees\n10:30 – 11:00 a.m. presentations from manufacturers for in-person and online attendees\n11:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. hands-on activities for in-person attendees\n12:00 – 1:00 p.m. lunch and conversations with manufacturers for in-person attendees \nLearning objectives\nParticipants will be able to: \n\nDescribe split heat pump water heaters and how they operate.\nExplain the benefits of split heat pump water heaters.\nUnderstand installation considerations for split system HPWHs.\nEvaluate and select split HPWH products.\n\nWhere: San Jose City College\, San Jose\, CA\nFind out more: Split System HPWH Event Flyer \nBrought to you by\nPG&E Energy Centers\, New Buildings Institute\, and the Advanced Water Heating Initiative
