THE NEW ECONOMICS OF SPACE AND WATER HEATING AND SPACE COOLING.

Author(s) : JARDINE D. M.

Summary

THIS PAPER POINTS OUT THAT BUILDING HEATING AND COOLING SYSTEM FIRST COSTS ARE SMALL COMPARED WITH LIFETIME OPERATING COSTS. THERE ARE SEVERAL INFLATIONARY FACTORS WHICH MUST BE ADDRESSED BY THE HVAC SYSTEM DESIGN ENGINEER. DISCOUNTED LIFE-CYCLE COST ANALYSIS WITH MARGINAL COST INPUT FROM INTERFACED UTILITIES IS RECOMMENDED AS THE BEST METHOD FOR SELECTING THE PREFERRED HVAC SYSTEM. USING CONSERVATION FEATURES WITH INNOVATIVE HVAC SYSTEMS CHOSEN BY WORKING CLOSELY WITH UTILITY ENGINEERS IS RECOMMENDED AS THE BEST WAY TO REMOVE ECONOMIC UNCERTAINTIES.
