How to improve Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) while reducing Energy Costs
The COVID-19 pandemic has raised awareness to the importance of good indoor air quality, especially in K-12 schools. This session, led by subject matter experts, details what constitutes Indoor Air Quality (IAQ), why IAQ is important for both improved cognitive function and personal health, sources of indoor pollutants, impacts of poor air quality on occupants and measures that can be taken to improve IAQ.
While many efforts have been taken to improve IAQ, some come with a high energy penalty. Analysis will be presented that quantifies the impact of alternative filtration strategies, with compelling data to help guide long term facilities related decisions on how to improve indoor air quality without breaking your energy budgets.

Utility Incentives: Driving Tomorrow’s Energy-Efficient Infrastructure
Driven by sustainability efforts, legislation and consumer demand, utility companies are challenged with meeting energy reduction mandates. Regulations are getting more stringent, and some states require alternative compliance payments from utility companies unable to hit mandated goals. As a result, utilities have created programs to incentivize energy efficiency among commercial end users, creating both opportunities and challenges. In this webinar, speakers James DeBerry and Shawn LeMons explore the ins and outs of incentive programs and rebates, and discuss HVAC manufacturer efforts to benefit both end users and utilities.
Learning Objectives:
- Learn why utility companies offer incentives in response to energy reduction mandates.
- Understand how utility incentive programs work and what challenges and opportunities they introduce for HVAC professionals.
- Understand Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) technology and how these systems create opportunities for incentives and rebates.
- Understand how manufacturers are supporting utilities in energy reduction efforts.
