الوصف
This book introduces Heating, Ventilation and Air-Conditioning (HVAC) as a critical part of facilities management. It explains how HVAC systems control indoor temperature, humidity, and air quality to support comfort and optimal performance, and why poor operation can contribute to health issues such as Sick Building Syndrome. Readers start with HVAC fundamentals—sources of heat gain, humidity, and impurities, and the concept of heat exchange. The book then covers heating systems (furnaces, boilers, and heat pumps), ventilation systems (including air handling units, fan coil units, variable air volume systems, chilled beams, scrubbers, exhaust fans, and jet fans), and air-conditioning systems (cooling types, refrigerants, operating principles, and common unit types). It concludes with chillers, chilled water systems, cooling towers, maintenance considerations, and key terminology.

aspects of management of Technical Services in facilities including the typical equipment
fit and we explained that there is a plethora of civil, electrical and mechanical elements
which need to be operated and maintained for the facility to serve its intended function.
In this book, we will cover one of the most critical equipment in a facility i.e. Heating,
Ventilation and Air-Conditioning (HVAC).
Heating, Ventilation and Air-Conditioning or HVAC is a set of equipment designed to
control and provide a consistent, conditioned indoor ambient environment viz temperature,
humidity and air quality, in a facility to ensure comfort of the occupants as also for optimal
performance of some equipment which may be sensitive to temperature.
