The Most Comprehensive Guide To HVAC Fundamentals

Price has long been innovative in the presentation of technical content and product information. We saw a need to present the ever-growing content of our Product Catalog in a more efficient way, so the next innovative step for Price was to create the Price Engineer’s HVAC Handbook.
 
What was originally a collection of design guides quickly changed into a more comprehensive manual that included existing engineering guides, HVAC theory, psychrometrics, and thermal comfort.
 
With functionality in mind, this reference text features:
  • 99 examples
  • 15 research highlights
  • Over 1,000 graphics to help illustrate and explain concepts and systems

Each chapter builds on fundamental concepts and presents in detail the applications of the relevant technologies. Where appropriate, highlights of advancements in research through summaries of recent technical papers are included in order to present new ideas that may have yet to be incorporated into the industry’s reference manuals.
 
The Handbook is intended to be used on a daily basis by engineers, architects, contractors, students, and anyone else interested in HVAC systems. No reference guide of this type could be introduced without a significant effort to ensure that the material is useable and correct. As such, a thorough review of this volume was completed by a notable and generous group of industry leaders, without whom, this handbook would not have been possible.
 
The creation of the Price Engineer’s Handbook was one of the largest and most rewarding projects we’ve had the pleasure to be a part of. The journey from inception to print was an enjoyable and thoroughly educational one for the entire Price team and we hope that the end product brings value to the HVAC community.
