Overview

The world's built environment is undergoing a fundamental transformation. For decades, Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems have been treated as separate, static mechanical assets-designed, installed, and then largely forgotten until a maintenance schedule required action. This traditional, prescriptive approach is no longer tenable in an era defined by climate goals, surging energy costs, and a demand for occupant-centric, responsive spaces. This book serves as a vital guide for the modern HVAC professional, documenting the necessary transition from traditional engineering design to data-driven consultancy. The rise of the Smart Building, powered by the Internet of Things (IoT), sophisticated sensors, and Artificial Intelligence (AI), has created a torrent of real-time operational data. This data is the new raw material for efficiency, and the consultant's new mission is to harness it. The Role of HVAC Consultants in Smart Building Projects explores how to integrate digital technologies from the earliest design stages through advanced operational life. We will cover the practical steps needed to evolve your practice-from adopting Digital Twins and designing for interoperability to implementing Predictive Maintenance and consulting on Net Zero carbon strategies. This is a framework for ensuring that HVAC remains not just a cost center, but the single most powerful lever for achieving efficiency, sustainability, and unparalleled occupant comfort in the buildings of tomorrow.
