available for many of the residential crafts based on skill standards developed
by the nation's leading builders and educators.
The Residential Construction Academy Series is
the perfect way to teach essential workplace skills to people new to the
building trades. Based on national skill standards, this full-color,
comprehensive HVAC book is intended for aspiring technicians and covers the
installation, startup, and service of residential air conditioning and heating
systems.
The first section explores matter, energy, heat,
and the basic refrigeration processes, with a view towards building a working
knowledge of the behavior of heat and how it is transferred.
Detailed information on safety issues and the
system installation process follows, with step-by-step procedures that clearly
illustrate the key skills needed to properly install a system.
The startup and service section shows readers the
steps that must be followed to make certain that airflow through the system is
correct and that the amount of refrigerant in the system is within an acceptable
range.
Coverage concludes with the installation and
service of oil, gas, electric, and geothermal heating systems, as well as
boilers, hydronic heating, and radiant heating.
