This seminar outlines comprehensive design strategies for heating, domestic hot water, and ventilation systems in non-domestic buildings. It focuses heavily on ensuring public buildings and commercial spaces are "heat network ready" (targeting 2050 connection goals) and explains how to implement efficient, low-carbon layouts using real-life scenarios.

The session covers critical elements of modern low-carbon design, including:

• The energy efficiency hierarchy (Be Seen, Be Lean, Be Clean, Be Green).

• The justification and implementation of 60/30 ΔT compatibility and heat network readiness.

• Low return temperatures and optimized thermal storage for peak demand reduction.

• Risk mitigation strategies, such as Legionella prevention and reliable heating system balancing.

• Integrating mechanical ventilation with heat recovery (MVHR) alongside energy center design for total cost and heat loss reduction.

It is ideal for mechanical and electrical (M&E) consultants, building services engineers, sustainability managers, and architects involved in designing, retrofitting, or managing energy systems for schools and commercial properties.

The session runs for a maximum of 1.5 hours (commonly structured as an informal lunch-and-learn format). It encourages interactive discussions and questions throughout, and attendees are provided with supplementary learning materials afterward.
