HVAC – Air Side: Terminal Units

The purpose of heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems is to provide environments that are comfortable for people and allow equipment to operate safely and reliably. An HVAC system is a group of components working together to condition the air in an enclosed space. The components ensure that the air in this space is clean and odor free, and that its temperature, humidity and circulation rate are within desired ranges. This course focuses primarily on the terminal units, or VAVs, that increase the efficiency and add flexibility to an HVAC system.
