Zoom Registration

Course description: Occupants feel better, in terms of both physical health and mood. Some examples of performance issues that affect comfort are temperature extremes, humidity extremes, excessive airspeed from ventilation, unpleasant odors, and noise.

This session will highlight how building commissioning supports owner’s energy conservation goals across all commercial buildings, from smaller simple buildings to high-performance complex buildings. During this webinar we will discuss actual project case studies highlighting how the commissioning process was executed and how it met the energy efficiency code requirements at each step along the way.

Learning Objectives:

• What is commissioning? How to verify and document, learn about the value and what is required for green building certifications. What are the current commercial energy codes and versions.
• Building Commissioning is an often-overlooked chapter in the commercial energy code, but it highly impacts energy performance of buildings. The most energy efficient equipment only performs correctly if it has been installed and controlled properly. Learn when and why commissioning is mandated and how, once done accurately, the benefits of commissioning on occupant health and wellbeing are recognizably improved.
• We will discuss commissioning systems, tasks, plans, specifications, functional performance testing, reporting, and Operations & Maintenance manuals.
• Learn about Rhode Island energy codes currently in effect and amendments.
