ROCKWOOL has unveiled a new HVAC Resource Hub to help designers and engineers select insulation products for HVAC settings. The online area features a wealth of technical literature, CPD learning modules and useful specification calculators helping users balance air quality versus thermal, acoustic and fire performance.
HVAC Resource Hub
Within the new HVAC Resource Hub, which can be accessed on the company’s official website, specifiers will find a comprehensive suite of tools to help overcome design conflicts, including a HVAC Systems Guide complete with specification clauses and installation guidance.
Users can also access the company’s new ROCK-EQ calculator that generates HVAC requirements, according to BS EN ISO 12241 standard certification.
CPD learning modules
CPD learning modules on the latest standards governing HVAC can also be found in the HVAC Resource hub on the ROCKWOOL website, along with case studies spanning multiple sectors and building types.
“There’s a delicate balance to achieve acoustic, thermal and fire performance, while ensuring excellent indoor air quality,” said Coral Morgan, Product Manager – HVAC & Fire at ROCKWOOL, adding “HVAC systems can often generate unwanted noise in buildings or due to openings that prevent effective compartmentalization, there’s a potential fire risk too.”
effective specification of non-combustible insulation
Coral Morgan adds, “Visitors to the hub will find a wealth of guidance on how to achieve all design and regulatory requirements, without compromise, through effective specification of non-combustible insulation, and because all the information is under one roof, it’s quick and easy to access too.”
ROCKWOOL offers a range of non-combustible stone wool products for HVAC applications, which offer high performance against heat gain, heat loss, noise and fire resistance, into and out of the HVAC system.
