Understanding Air-Conditioning and Heat Pump Ratings | AHRI, DOE, ASHRAE

Join us in this informative presentation by Mark W. Fly, P.E., a distinguished lecturer at ASHRAE, as he delves into the intricate world of air-conditioning and heat pump ratings.

Here are the five learning objectives of this video:

1. What are Certified Ratings, and where did they come from?

2. What are the different rating metrics for full load and part load performance of Air Conditioners and Heat Pumps?

3. What environmental conditions are these units tested at to develop the ratings?

4. What do the ratings cover and don’t cover?

5. How do these ratings affect systems' energy consumption and overall building performance?
