I have a feature article published in this issue of Engineered Systems magazine, on Page 28, highlighting a project at the Watergate facility. I was brought onto this project by my longtime friend Dave Avedesian, P.E., RPA. Over the years, he and I have worked together on numerous problematic HVAC jobs, and I’ve enjoyed each challenge that comes with a troubled HVAC installation. I’ve gained a great deal of professional satisfaction while working with a team of others who are committed to reaching solutions.
Hindsight is always 20/20 when troubleshooting after the fact. Through these projects, I’ve learned a lot more about how many of these issues could have been avoided by simply starting with a system flow diagram.
