Advanced ASD Diagnostics and System Design

This course treats ASD systems as air-handling systems and uses quantitative diagnostic procedures to determine system performance requirements as a basis for system component selection and overall operating characteristics. This process enables design of cost-effective systems which adequately control radon entry without creating unnecessary installation and operating costs from over-sized systems and excessive conditioned air loss.

Industry technical standards require minimizing excess energy consumption by radon mitigation systems. Increasing emphasis on energy efficiency in buildings will bring increased scrutiny of the energy impact of all building components, including mitigation systems. Future marketability of mitigation systems and their inclusion in "green" building programs will depend on demonstrably energy-efficient system design and operation.

This course is approved for 8 hours of Category 1 CE credit by both NEHA/NRPP and NRSB.
