Patient Isolation Rooms
June 2024 | PTP 9385: Patient Isolation Rooms can be particularly challenging environments to design. The air distribution system must supply clean air to the patient, maintain pressurization to prevent unwanted leakage in/out of the space, as well as meet the thermal comfort requirements from a thermostat. This webinar will explore both the typical HVAC equipment layouts of Patient Isolation Rooms and the control schemes behind them.

Cleanroom Design
March 2024 | PTP 9380: Creating high-performing, well-ventilated spaces is essential in critical environments such as hospital operating rooms, patient rooms and other medical spaces. Indoor air quality directly affects occupants’ well-being and productivity and, in the case of pharmaceutical compounding, for instance, can have a profound impact on processes that occur in the space.

Chilled Beams for Laboratories
August 2023 | PTP 7125: The demand for life science and technology buildings is steadily growing and so has the need to reduce energy usage and decarbonize. One key element with labs is higher air change requirements, making ventilation air and reheat as the two predominant sources of energy usage. This presentation will review chilled beam systems and the potential with reduction in air change rates and required reheat.
|
Operating Room Design: Going Beyond ASHRAE 170 Design Minimums
May 2023 | PTP 9210: This webinar will explore the future of operating room air distribution design. Going beyond current ASHRAE 170 code minimums, we will delve into methodologies to improve thermal comfort, improve contamination control, and effectively manage surgical smoke within the operating room.
|
Chilled Beams in Healthcare
April 2022 | PTP 7124
This presentation will discuss how chilled beam systems can reduce operating costs, save on first costs, and be combined with other ceiling utilities such as lighting to reduce congestion in the ceiling grid.
|
Integrated Ceiling System Benefits for Hospital O.R's
November 2020 | PTP 9260: This course covers the benefits to the engineering team, contractors, architects, owners, and end users that can be achieved by using an integrated operating room ceiling system design as opposed to a standard drywall or stick built system. We will discuss project timeline, cost, safety, and coordination.
|
Utilizing Fan Filter Units in Cleanrooms
November 2019 | PTP 3102: Fan filter units are used in the majority of cleanrooms. In this webinar, you will learn the benefits of using fan filter units, the different styles of cleanroom design incorporating fan filter units, and the requirements of the cleanrooms based on varying ISO levels.
|
Air Distribution Design for Hybrid and Imaging Operating Rooms
July 2019 | PTP 3018: Hybrid and Imaging OR's present unique challenges for air distribution due to the congestion of the ceiling space, as well as integration with unistrut. This webinar will cover challenges of these spaces, review code requirements, and discuss different styles of operating room air distribution that can be used to achieve a clean and sterile operating room.
|
Air Distribution Optimization for Laboratories and Cleanrooms
January 2019 | PTP 3009: Laboratories and cleanrooms present unique challenges for air distribution, especially for proper placement and achieving adequate air cleanliness levels. This webinar will cover challenges of these spaces, identify proper diffuser selection and layouts, review code requirements, and present strategies to optimize air cleanliness and energy savings.
|
Air Distribution for the Modern Operating Room
July 2017 | PTP 3110: This presentation provides guidance on the selection and application of ASHRAE 170 guidelines for designing operating rooms, the pros and cons of laminar flow and air curtain systems, and the airflow requirements of hybrid surgery/imaging operating rooms.
