The presentation will provide an introduction and overview of Guideline 36, including example air-side system sequences. 

The purpose of ASHRAE Guideline 36 is to provide uniform sequences of operation for HVAC systems that are intended to maximize energy efficiency and performance, provide control stability, and allow for real-time fault detection and diagnostics.  The Guideline was first published in 2018 for air-side VAV systems and will be reissued in 2021 with addendums and hydronic (central plant) system sequences. 

Eric has over 25 years of experience in building systems controls, commissioning, and energy analysis. He is a Senior Engineer in the Phoenix office at McKinstry, a national leader in designing, constructing, operating and maintaining high-performing buildings where he executes existing building, new construction and monitoring-based commissioning projects.  Eric is a Professional Engineer (P.E.), a Certified Energy Manager (CEM), a Certified Commissioning Authority (CxA), and a voting member of the ASHRAE Guideline 36 committee (since it was formed in 2014).  He holds a bachelor’s and master’s degrees in mechanical engineering.
