Application Considerations for Changeover-Bypass-VAV

Abuilding with varying loads due to occupancy, time-of-day, or other special needs is a likely candidate for a changeover-bypass VAV system. Also, any structure required to meet the higher ventilation requirements associated with ASHRAE Standard 62 is a prime target. These applications include:

•Offices and small manufacturing buildings – Varying occupancy places varying demands on the HVAC system.

•Schools – Heightened concerns about indoor air quality (IAQ) affect both new and existing applications.

•Strip malls, movie theaters, health clubs – Variable vacancy and special needs for conditioned air apply in these buildings.

•Clinics, nursing homes, small hospitals – These buildings can be multi-purpose and almost always have special requirements for conditioned air.
