In this one-day class, participants will learn about laboratory HVAC energy conservation techniques and how they may impact health and safety. After different approaches are described, attendees will participate in exercises for different lab HVAC scenarios to better understand the energy, health and safety balance. | 
Design Engineers, Architects, EHS Professionals, Facility Managers, Energy Engineers, Lab Managers, and Sustainability Officers. |
