Arctic climates provide unique challenges for designers of HVAC, plumbing, and thermal energy systems. The importance of considering the operation outside air temperatures, system reliability, and building resiliency cannot be understated. This Guide describes best practice examples of robustand reliable systems with the emphasis on their redundancy, durability, and functionality. It also discusses the most common heating system and ventilation system approaches used in arctic climate and emphasizes the importance of a maintenance program that allows building operators to successfully troubleshoot and maintain buildings in the arctic. Concepts are illustrated by several best practice examples.
This Guide is designed for energy systems designers, architects, energy managers and building operators and is a valuable resource for those who are involved in building planning and operation in cold and arctic climates. This Guide, with its focus on resilience of thermal energy systems, is meantto complement the ASHRAE Cold-Climate Buildings Design Guide, Second Edition (ASHRAE 2021).
