This session will explore how the strategies described in ASHRAE® Guideline 36—deployed today most commonly by complex applied systems—can be simplified and extended to more buildings by utilizing packaged rooftop systems to help more customers achieve their sustainability goals.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the basics of ASHRAE® Guideline 36 and how it applies to both complex and packaged HVAC systems.
- Translate the savings and benefits associated with Guideline 36 (for applied systems) to unitary/packaged systems.
- Learn how to specify Guideline 36 sequences for DX systems.
- Identify tools and resources to easily apply these sequences through the contracting cycle (specification, programming, installation).
- Highlight recent innovations in Trane RTU portfolio and design tools.

Preparing for A2L Refrigerants
Familiar refrigerants, including R-410A, are being phased out in newly manufactured equipment, with next-generation, low global warming (GWP) refrigerants becoming the new reality. These new refrigerants, classified as A2L, have been described as having "lower flammability" characteristics which will impact how systems are designed, installed, and maintained.
