ASHRAE Engineer’s Notebook: Designing HVAC for Cold Climates

Successful cold-climate HVAC design depends on having the experience to know what items might cause problems or failures. This paper by IMEG’s Jeff Boldt and William Maki examines considerations for coils, pipes, and chillers, issues with snow, and occupant comfort. Reprinted with permission from ASHRAE, the paper is a follow-up to Designing HVAC for Humid vs. Arid Climates.
