Johnson Controls - Hitachi Air Conditioning - Rethinking the UK Building Regulations, A guide to building services

This presentation delves into different approaches to delivering good indoor air quality, with a focus on the benefits of ionization technology. The presentation explains the difference between ‘hard’ and ‘soft’ ionization, and how soft ionization can work with ventilation systems to enhance indoor environments. Includes a look at key test results, international Standards and advice on good design of these systems.

This presentation introduces and explains soft ionisation and the important role it has in delivering Indoor Air Quality. The presentation addresses the growing importance of IAQ and highlights how soft ionisation is uniquely placed to optimise the performance of ventilation systems in removing harmful particulates from occupied spaces.

Many businesses are thinking about how they will use office space in the coming years. But in the UK, investment in new office construction is at its highest level for decades. And the refurbishment of existing office buildings is booming. This presentation and guide look at the drivers behind this interest in a new future for the office – and the crucial role of building services technology in delivering healthy, productive and profitable offices.

Hotel operators are having to rethink their approach to many areas of operation, including building services. This presentation and guide look at the challenges facing the hotel and hospitality sectors and consider how today’s building services technology can support an energy efficient and low-carbon future.

Explains the drivers behind electrification of heating systems in the UK and provides guidance on making the right technology choices for your project. Touches on energy efficiency as well as the embodied carbon implications of specification.

Considers the challenge facing the UK's built environment as it heads towards Net Zero 2050. Although there are some hurdles to overcome, there are also opportunities to adopt low-carbon, energy efficient heating and cooling technologies. Includes examples and case studies.

This presentation and accompanying guide consider the growing importance of heat pump technology in decarbonizing the UK’s heating. It specifically addresses exhaust air heat pumps, with a close look at how the technology works, pitfalls to avoid and the importance of issues such as system sizing and ventilation. The presentation and guide cover the benefits of EAHPs and their potential to deliver not only space heating and hot water, but also improved indoor air quality in modern homes.

As the UK moves to reduce its reliance on fossil fuels for heating in homes and non-dwellings, heat pumps are being increasingly regarded as an important technology. This presentation and guide look at the application of technologies that can help to decarbonise heating and hot water production in domestic and commercial buildings.

An office is no longer a place people have to visit for work – technology has freed many employees from that necessity. But it is a place to meet, collaborate and to tap into the synergies of group working that are vital for business success. So how can we make the office of the future a safe, healthy and productive environment? This presentation and guide consider the challenges and opportunities with a particular focus on the critical role of building services, air conditioning and heating.
