The Science of Comfort TM
Costs $250, Requires completion of Level 1.
Get up to speed on the features, applications and performance of Price products, including GRD, air moving, healthcare and critical environments, noise control, sustainable systems, air purification and controls. A factory tour will also take place.
The Price Engineer Training (PET) Intro class is designed for Engineers with less than 5 years of experience, or those looking to brush up on their air distribution knowledge, and will equip you with the tools and expertise to successfully design spaces. Over 5,000 engineers have completed this industry renowned program, hosted in the Price Technical Center East (PTCE) facility.
Learn about air distribution fundamentals and emerging HVAC trends in an all-female environment. Held prior to International Women In Engineering Day (June 23), this PET provides a unique opportunity to simultaneously strengthen HVAC system knowledge and professional networks. The group will participate in general, fundamental sessions and attendees will also have the opportunity to choose from a variety of focused sessions utilizing the Price Technical Center. This training program includes a tour of a Price factory, which provides attendees with the opportunity to see first-hand how products are manufactured.
Date option 1. As energy codes evolve and electrification becomes a central strategy for decarbonizing buildings, designers and engineers face new challenges in maintaining occupant comfort — especially along perimeter zones. This presentation explores the design challenges with traditional solutions due to the impact of lower hot water temperatures driven by modern energy codes. We’ll dive into the performance and design considerations of trench convectors and natural convection wall heaters, examining how these systems respond to reduced water temperatures and what strategies can be employed to optimize their effectiveness. Attendees will gain insights into balancing energy efficiency with thermal comfort and learn practical approaches for integrating low-temperature heating solutions in high-performance building envelopes.
