Extreme wind and rain events in recent years have resulted in billions of dollars in building damage with a significant portion of this damage resulting from failure of the building envelope in repelling water. Building codes have recently been significantly enhanced to address this problem and since HVAC systems are typically part of building envelopes, it is vital that owners, designers and contractors be aware of current code requirements and design guidelines. Part of the session will highlight results from a new large scale testing facility built to investigate extreme weather events and their effects on HVAC equipment.
