Résumé

This article demonstrates how school facilities can be designed and operated to comply with ASHRAE's ventilation, energy and thermal comfort standards while remaining energy efficient and cost effective. Research findings from a DOE-sponsored demonstration site show systems that actively control temperature, space humidity and ventilation can perform beyond the standards' requirements. Novel engineering solutions and equipment designs proved to substantially increase operating efficiency, and meet point requirements for LEED certification. The construction cost of this advanced HVAC system was comparable to that of conventional HVAC systems that consume more energy and have been shown to be less effective at controlling humidity and ensuring proper ventilation.
