Climate Cŏntrol™ Multifunction Controller and Climate Cŏntrol Zoning System
This webinar is ideal for contractors seeking to deepen their understanding of Uponor radiant system controls. Participants will learn advanced radiant design concepts while learning how to wire and program the Climate Cŏntrol Multifunction Controller and the wireless Climate Cŏntrol Zoning System.
Climate Cŏntrol Network System
This webinar is intended for the contractor requiring a smart solution for complete radiant and HVAC system integration and control. The Climate Cŏntrol Network System simplifies installation, programming and system start up. Contractors will learn theory of operation along with web-based programming.
Ecoflex® Pre-insulated Pipe Systems
This webinar is designed for the contractor who needs a faster, easier solution for installing underground or aboveground insulated pipe systems for potable-water and hydronic radiant heating and cooling applications.
Frost Prevention
Robert Bean leads Uponor’s AIA/CES webinar focused on Frost Prevention in freezers, coolers and recreational facilities such as hockey, curling and speed skating rinks. Discussions will include terminology, system equipment, assembly and determining thermal loads.
Geothermal
This webinar teaches contractors the main principles and benefits of a sustainable alternative energy source for radiant heating and cooling systems. The contractor will learn the concept of geodonics — the art of combining geothermal and hydronic radiant systems.
Human Factor in HVAC
The Human Factor in HVAC is a one-hour overview of influencers affecting wide-scale adaptation of indoor environmental quality into the built environment. The webinar includes a brief study in demographics and socioeconomic conditions. Solutions are presented based on health and wellness, supported by a basic study in thermal comfort (ASHRAE 55) and indoor air quality (ASHRAE 62).
IAQ for Radiant Contractors
This one-hour presentation from Robert Bean’s Healthy Heating webinar series takes radiant contractors through the basics of indoor air quality, including discussions about gases, minerals, biological odors and particulate matter. This webinar is especially useful for understanding choices in floor coverings and benefits of warm, dry surfaces for controlling dust mites and mold.
Radiant-based HVAC Systems
This one-hour presentation covers the basics of incorporating radiant into the design of buildings and HVAC systems. It includes a brief history of radiant between 10,000 B.C. to modern times, a look at relevant ASHRAE Standards as they pertain to indoor environmental quality and radiant including the research work on which the standards are based. There will be a discussion on design tools such as FEA and thermography which will lead into a discussion on human design factors as they relate to ASHRAE 55 and 62. Presentation will conclude with a look a design processes and instrumentation for studying radiant cooling and heating systems.
Radiant Heating and Cooling
Robert Bean leads Uponor’s AIA/CES webinar focused on Radiant Heating and Cooling, discussing how radiant-based heating and cooling systems influence health, wellness and safety in the context of industry codes and standards. Topics include radiant heating and cooling terminology; types of radiant surfaces and sub-assemblies; and basic mechanical equipment and thermal design criteria for radiant-conditioned spaces.
Snow and Ice Melting
Robert Bean leads Uponor’s AIA/CES webinar focused on Snow and Ice Melting, covering common snow and ice melting applications — walkways, ramps, driveways, helipads, stairs — and how to evaluate and meet client needs and performance expectations in these areas. The course will also address the required design criteria for evaluating thermal-melting loads.
Thermal Comfort
Robert Bean leads Uponor’s AIA/CES webinar focused on Thermal Comfort, addressing the basics of human physiology as it relates to thermal sensations and their relationship to health, safety and wellness. Topics include specifications for interior thermal conditions to meet the parameters of ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 55 and the relationship between indoor comfort and indoor air quality with reference to ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 62 — Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air Quality.
Uponor Logic for Plumbing Systems
This webinar is designed for the plumber in search of a well-organized installation solution for potable-water systems. Focusing on efficient, effective design and application, this course will cover installation from rough-in to finish.
