1MEPMechanical Electrical &Plumbingwork coordinates with all other trades*2.Mechanical & PlumbingMechanical - HVAC (Heating Venting and Air conditioning).
Electrical lighting fixtures, switches, outlets, panels, appliances, etc.
Plumbing - pipes, fixtures & fittings; water supply/distribution, and waste removal.
3MechanicalHVAC*SIMPLIST FORM.
4Mechanical System-Common types
1.Central Forced air (Furnace/fan blower /condenser & compressors; ducts; registers/diffusers) Heat Pump Heat & Cooling within One unit Most Common type of Heating/Cooling* takes heat out of inside air (cooling) or takes heat out of outside air to heat bldg.
2.Hydronic Hot Water system (Boilers/pipes supply hot water to Radiators/Baseboards/or tube arrays below floor YOUR TERMINAL UNITS RADIANT Type Heat exchange)
3.Radiant (Control surface temp. of heating panel or Floor at the heat source Uniform heat/reduced air movement) use Electricity to heat Coils under floor or Piped hot (or cold) water to radiate heat
5Forced Air Furnace heat house thru convectionTwo part system : central heating device-Furnace + distribution network-Ducts
Fan blows heated air from the heat exchanger into supply Plenum smaller branch ducts tap into plenum air supply flows to Diffusers (in ceiling or floor registers).
Air return grills centrally located picks up returnair and carries it back to furnace via return duct into a return air plenum
Gas Furnaces have exterior air intake and exhaust for the combustion chamber6Heat pump Heat pump extracts heat from space at low temp & discharges it to another space at a higher temp
2 heat exchangers, a compressor & expansion valve & interconnecting pipes filled with refrigerant.Reversing the direction of the refrig. Flow system can either heat or Cool
Compressor sits outside the house on a concrete pad feeding the chilled refrig. to fan coil units 7Condition the air using Nature:Cross ventilation (open windows)Stack effect (heat rises so remove it from Roof area/vent opening skylights)Ceiling fans (or whole house fan workWith stack effect)Block solar heat gain(overhangs & low E insulated glass)Heat-storing (like concrete /masonry absorb heat & release heat slowly
8Mechanical System- Forced CONDITIONED Air
Furnace feed heated air through ducts & deliver it to registers(or diffusers)
Return air to system through return grills separtated from diffuser.9Mechanical System- ForcedFurnace/ducts & registers.Air intake to furnace & exhaust

14Mechanical System-
ZonesProvide Flexibility/Efficiency Control temperature of Areas (or rooms) individually with thermostats and Dampers
Thermostats The control for Heating & Cooling Should be centrally located in zoned area or house to give an average temperature reading.
