Architectural Perspective of Chilled Beams in Healthcare
October 2015 – A variety of chilled beam solutions are available for many different healthcare applications. Chilled beams in healthcare can reduce system horsepower by up to 40 percent, with minimum air changes satisfied through induction. This webinar discusses the market acceptance of chilled beams in healthcare, classifies common design considerations for appropriate spaces, and reviews real-life application of chilled beams through our case studies.

Chilled Beams Come of Age
April 2015 | PTP 7022: One alternative technology to an all-air system that is gaining traction is the active chilled beam. The active chilled beam incorporates the distribution of ventilation air and uses room air induced across a water coil to transfer sensible thermal energy for both heating and cooling to the occupied space. This webinar discusses the market place acceptance of chilled beams, common questions and concerns as well as, presents several case studies.
