Seminar 56 — How Air Filter Selection Affects Energy Consumption
This product is a PDF that contains links to files that consist of PowerPoint slides synchronized with the audio-recording of the speaker (recorded presentation), PDF files of the slides, and audio only (mp3) as noted.
Approximately half of all energy consumed in commercial and residential buildings is used for the HVAC systems and a significant contributor to that energy consumption is the fan power required to move air throughout the building. Air filters create resistance to that air flow and as a result, contribute to the energy consumption. However, air filters play a critical role in keeping the HVAC system clean and contribute to good IAQ within the occupied spaces. This seminar combines the lessons from recent ASHRAE-funded research with other emerging research to help building owners and operators understand the role that air filter pressure drop plays in building energy consumption.
