Engineering For Air Quality
There are multiple documents referenced by mechanical engineers in the design of HVAC and dehumidification systems for natatoriums. This program identifies those documents in a cohesive and comprehensive way to create a methodical approach to designing and specifying air handling systems. Beginning with the guest experience, design criteria is established and then best practices are used to define a design workflow that achieves the initial goals.
What you will learn:
Define the guest experience from the standpoint of indoor air quality performance criteria such as temperature, humidity and odors from chloramines and other disinfection byproducts.
Identify the relevant standards, codes, and design references as well as potential equipment manufacturers for examples of how to interpret their performance specifications.
Analyze the HVAC and dehumidification requirements from return and supply duct sizes and locations to air turnover rates and mass of water removed through dehumidification.
Formulate a plan that optimizes the design for a safe and healthy indoor air quality.

Eric Knight
Eric Knight is a former American Record Holder in swimming, who got sick from breathing airborne chloramines while swimming indoors. He joined the swimming pool industry immediately following the 2012 US Olympic Swimming Trials. Eric worked for Paddock, focusing on the indoor air quality issue for natatoriums.
He moved from Paddock in 2015 to develop a mobile app, where Eric learned the skills that led him to his role in Orenda in 2016, where he began to learn about water chemistry. He developed the Orenda App and the Orenda Calculator®, which quickly became the most widely-used pool calculator in the world. Eric also created and hosted the Rule Your Pool® Podcast, which made him one of the most prolific and trusted pool chemistry instructors in the United States.
