Quick Tips
Particle counts
Particle counts vary according
to a number of factors such
as location, time of year, and
occupants. When taking particle counts, always establish
an outside baseline reading to
compare indoor particle levels
against. Ideally, indoor particle
levels will be less then outdoor
levels.
Filter bypass
When testing for filter bypass,
take particle counts before
and after sealing the edges of
the filter with duct tape. This
will provide an indication of
how much particulate matter is
bypassing the filter due to poor
fitment or compromised sealing
surfaces.

Growing your business
through indoor air quality

You’ve probably heard mold referred to
as the “new asbestos”
for HVAC/R.
Concern about
mold and its health
effects is driving consumers to
have their indoor
air quality (IAQ)
situation assessed
and, if necessary,
repaired.
If you’re the
contractor they
call, keep in mind
that mold isn’t the
only issue to consider when assessing the IAQ of a commercial building
or residence. Many different kinds of
particulates in a work or living environment can cause Sick Building Syndrome
and aggravate allergy and respiratory
conditions. Read a detailed application

Quick Tips
Frequent Calibration is Key
Frequent calibration of gas
sensors is key to maintaining
the accuracy and performance
of the device. Both CO2 and
CO sensors can exhibit tendencies to drift over time due to
environmental factors such as
temperature, humidity, and
pressure.
Fluke recommends monthly
calibration of the CO sensor,
and an annual calibration for
CO2 for optimum performance.

Application Note
Measuring air velocity with
the Fluke 975 AirMeter:
Using the velocity probe
Fro m t h e F lu k e D ig i ta l L i br ar y @ w ww .f l uk e .c o m/ l ib ra r y
Air velocity is a key parameter in evaluating airflow system performance. As part of basic testing, adjusting
and balancing of HVAC air distribution systems, most
HVAC technicians now use an anemometer to measure air velocity at grilles-registers-diffusers, within a
duct, or in open spaces.
Anemometers are typically very accurate tools,
especially at low velocities, but they must compensate
for air temperature, absolute pressure, and ambient
absolute pressure. The Fluke 975 AirMeter tool has an
accessory velocity probe that uses a thermal anemometer to measure air velocity. A temperature sensor in
the probe tip compensates for air temperature, a sensor in the meter reads absolute pressure, and ambient
absolute pressure is determined upon meter initialization. For users who prefer to calculate their own compensation factors, the meter will also display air velocity
or volume at standard conditions.
This application note describes how to take accurate
air volume measurements within a duct, air measurements at grilles-registers-diffusers, and other locations.
Air volumes within a duct
The ultimate goal of any duct
system is to move the required
air volume, while keeping all
other factors within acceptable
limits, and to deliver it in quantities and patterns that serve the
intended purpose: heating, cooling, ventilating, exhausting, mixing, humidifying, dehumidifying,
or otherwise conditioning the air
within a space. Velocity within
a duct is determined not only
by application, but also by how
the duct is designed. Key design
factors include: The level of
available static pressure that can
be overcome by the fan due to
friction losses and pressure drops
of devices within the air stream;
the cost of duct work; the space
available for duct work; and
acceptable noise levels.
To determine the air volume
delivered to all downstream terminal devices, technicians use a
duct traverse. Duct traverses can
determine air volume in any duct
by multiplying average velocity
readings by the inside area of
the duct. Traverses in main ducts
measure total system air volume,
which is critical to HVAC system
performance, efficiency, and even
life expectancy. The difference
in air volumes between the main
supply duct traverse and the
main return duct traverse results
in outdoor air volume. A traverse
in run-outs is the most accurate
way to determine the air volume
delivered by the terminal device
(grille-register-diffuser). A traverse in exhaust ducts reveals
exhaust air volume.

Dirty coils, fans, and filters
will increase static pressure
by reducing airflow, causing HVAC equipment to work
harder to meet occupant loads
and increasing energy costs.
With HVAC energy costs often
comprising over 50 % of
the total energy bill, tighter
monitoring and control of
HVAC airflow can have a direct
impact on the bottom line.
In a study1 on coil clean-
•
ing and energy savings in
a New York City high rise,
pressure monitoring and
visual inspection led to
restoration of the coils and
components. The restoration resulted in a 14 %
decrease in pressure drop
across the coils, a 25 %
increase in the coil’s thermal efficiency, and energy
savings of up to $40,000 in
the first year.
EPA studies2 show that a 15

cfm airflow differential can
impact annual HVAC energy
costs by up to 8 % depending upon the HVAC system
and variations in climate.

United States die from CO produced
by fuel-burning appliances (furnaces, ranges, water heaters, room
heaters). Others die from CO produced while burning charcoal inside
a home, garage, vehicle or tent. Still
others die from CO produced by cars
left running in attached garages.
Several thousand people go to hospital emergency rooms for treatment
for CO poisoning.

Use a carbon monoxide
meter to check for CO leaks
around the heat exchanger,
flue and other points
within a building.
Control voltage
Use a voltage detector or
DMM to test for energized
24 V ac contacts. Use an
infrared (IR) thermometer to
check for loose connections
or overloaded circuits.
Belts and
bearings
Use an infrared
thermometer to
check belts for
alignment and
bearings for
excessive
friction.
Air temperature difference
Check the temperature difference across the heat exchanger
with a digital thermometer, with the burner working. Expect
a 40-75 °F temperature difference (TD). If the TD is low, then
the fan is running too fast. If the TD is high, then the fan is
running too slow or there is restricted air flow.
Flame rod µA test
Verify proper operation of the flame
rectification circuit with a clamp meter or
digital multimeter in the µA mode. Compare
measured value against flame control module
specifications. Typical values vary widely and
can be as low as 0.16 to 18.0 µA or more.
If the µA reading is below specification,
the flame rod may need to be
repositioned, cleaned, or replaced.

Quick Tips
Measuring superheat
and subcooling
To measure superheat:
1) Measure suction pressure
with a pressure module
and your digital multimeter
(DMM). Convert pressure
to temperature using your
PT chart.
2) Measure the pipe temperature
at the outlet of the evaporator
with a pipe clamp and your
temperature meter.
3) Subtract the difference
in temperatures to obtain
superheat.
To measure subcooling:
1) Measure liquid line pressure
(or discharge pressure if there
is no liquid line access valve)
with a pressure module and
your DMM. Convert the pressure to temperature using your
PT chart.
2) Measure the pipe temperature
at the outlet of the condenser
with a pipe clamp and your
temperature meter.
3) Subtract the difference
in temperatures to obtain
subcooling.

Why true-rms matters
for HVAC technicians
Non-linear loads need a true-rms
test tool for accurate readings
For today’s
HVAC
technician,
troubleshooting
electrical problems is becoming
more difficult
without the use
of true-rms test
tools. This is
due in part to
the prol iferation
of new solid
state adjustable speed
motor dr ives and heating controls
containing power semiconductors or
rectifiers. These loads are referred
to as “non-linear.” Non-linear loads
draw current in short pulses rather
than the smooth sine wave drawn
by a linear load such as an induction
motor. The c urrent wave shape can
have a drastic effect on a test tool
reading. Read a detailed application

A detailed list of heating,
air conditioning, and HVAC terms
Glossary
26
Absolute humidity: The mass of water vapor per
unit volume of air.
Absolute pressure: Pressure above a perfect
vacuum. Absolute pressure is the sum of gage
pressure plus atmospheric pressure.
Air exchange rate: Used in two ways: 1. the
number of times the outdoor air replaces the
volume of air in a building per unit time, typically
expressed as air changes per hour; 2. the number
of times that the ventilation system replaces the
air within a room or area within the building.
Air flow: The movement of air from one location
to another, commonly measured in cubic feet per
minute (CFM).
Air velocity: The distance traveled per unit of time,
commonly measured in feet per minute (FPM).
Air handling unit (AHU): Refers to equipment that
includes a blower or fan, heating and/or cooling
coils, and related equipment such as controls,
condensate drain pans, and air filters. Does not
include ductwork, registers or grilles, or boilers
and chillers.
Allergen: A substance capable of causing an aller-
gic reaction because of an individual’s sensitivity
to that substance.
Ambient air: Unconditioned atmospheric air.
Atmospheric pressure: Standard atmosphere is
the pressure equivalent of 14.696 psi or 29.921 in.
Hg at sea level. Measured with a barometer, it is
an indication of the “weight” of the air.
Boiler: A pressure vessel that safely and efficiently
transfers heat to water.
BTU: British Thermal Unit. A measure of the heat
given off when fuel is combusted. One BTU is
equal to the heat necessary to raise one pound of
water 1 °F.
Building envelope: Elements of the building,
including all external building materials, windows, and walls, that enclose the internal space.
Building-related illness (BRI): Diagnosable
illness whose symptoms can be identified and
whose cause can be directly attributed to airborne
building pollutants (e.g., Legionnaire’s disease,
hypersensitivity pneumonitis).
Capacity: The output of a heating or cooling system
for a given amount of space. For heating, this is
usually expressed in BTU’s. For cooling, it is usually expressed in tons.
Carbon dioxide: (CO2), a clear, odorless gas found
in nature (around 380 ppm), most commonly
associated with respired air. The gas is largely
considered non-poisonous, but can result in suffocation in sufficient quantities.
Carbon monoxide: A clear, odorless gas made
when carbon or other fuel is burned during the
combustion process. The gas is poisonous, with
exposure resulting in symptoms such as headaches, nausea, or even death.
Ceiling plenum: Space below the flooring and
above the suspended ceiling that accommodates
the mechanical and electrical equipment and that
is used as part of the air distribution system. The
space is kept under negative pressure.
Central air handling unit (Central AHU): This is
the same as an Air Handling Unit, but serves more
than one area.
Chiller: Hydronic air conditioning system which
cools water, which cools air.
Compressor: Mechanical device that compresses
refrigerant or other fluid.
Condensate: Liquid formed when a vapor has
cooled below its dewpoint.
Condenser: Heat exchanger that removes heat from
high-pressure refrigerant vapor.
Conditioned air: Air that has been heated, cooled,
humidified, or dehumidified to maintain an interior space within the “comfort zone.” (Sometimes
referred to as “tempered” air.)
Constant air volume systems: Air handling
system that provides a constant air flow while
varying the temperature to meet heating, and
cooling needs.
Cooling coil: Typically copper or aluminum
tubing arranged to transfer the heat from air
to a refrigerant.
Dampers: Controls that vary airflow through an
air outlet, inlet, or duct. A damper position may
be immovable, manually adjustable or part of an
automated control system.
Demand controlled ventilation: Any system used
to vary air intake rates based upon the loads
placed upon the system, given a predefined space.
Dewpoint temperature (dp): Temperature below
which moisture in the air begins to condense.
Differential pressure: The difference in static
pressure measured between two locations.
Diffusers: Components of the ventilation system
that distribute and diffuse air to promote air circulation in the occupied space. Diffusers supply air,
and grilles return air.
Draft: Air movement resulting in a local cooling
effect on the body. The intensity of the draft is
dependent upon a variety of factors which include
air velocity, temperature, occupant activity, and
occupant clothing.
Drain trap: A dip in the drain pipe of sinks, toilets,
floor drains, etc., which is designed to stay filled
with water, thereby preventing sewer gases from
escaping into the room.
Page 27
Dry bulb temperature: Measurement of sensible
heat.
Economizer: A mechanical device that makes
system adjustments in response to changing
conditions in order to maximize energy efficiency.
An economizer typically contains a thermostat
control that opens the dampers when outside air
temperatures are lower than indoors, providing
“free cooling”. Many economizers will incorporate
humidity sensors to ensure outside air is both cool
and dry enough to allow indoors, unconditioned.
Emissivity: The efficiency with which the surface
material of a certain object emits energy. Emissivity is an important consideration in using infrared
to measure temperatures on reflective surfaces.
Enthalpy: (h) Total heat contained in a substance,
which is the sum of sensible heat and latent heat.
Evaporator coil: Cools and dehumidifies the air
by converting liquid refrigerant into a gas, which
absorbs the heat from the air.
Exfiltration: The controlled or uncontrolled move-
ment of air out of a building, through cracks, and
other openings.
Exhaust air: Air that is removed from a space, and
not recirculated into the system.
Exhaust ventilation: Mechanical removal of air
from a portion of a building (e.g., piece of equipment, room, or general area).
Fan coil: A component of a heat pump system, used
to provide additional heat when the heat pump
does not provide adequate heating.
Filter efficiency: The ratio of particles trapped by
filter media compared to the total number of particles found in the air upstream of the filter.
(HEPA) filter that is at least 99.97 percent efficient
in removing particulate matter with a diameter of
0.3 micrometers or greater.
Flame rod: Combustion safety control that conducts
electricity through a flame for flame detection.
Forced-air heating system: Uses air to carry heat.
Fungi: Any of a group of parasitic lower plants that
lack chlorophyll, including molds and mildews.
Green buildings: The building industry is increas-
ingly focused on making its buildings “greener,”
which includes using healthier, less polluting and
more resource-efficient practices. Indoor environmental quality (IEQ) refers to the quality of
the air and environment inside buildings, based
on pollutant concentrations and conditions that
can affect the health, comfort and performance of
occupants—including temperature, relative humid
ity, light, sound, and other factors. Good IEQ is an
essential component of any building, especially a
green building.
Heat exchanger: Material that transfers heat from
one substance to another without allowing the
substances to mix.
Heat pump: Mechanical compression refrigeration
system that contains devices and controls that
reverse the flow of refrigerant. Reversing the flow
of refrigerant switches the relative position of the
evaporator and condenser.
Heat: Form of energy identified by temperature
difference or a change of state.
HEPA: High efficiency particulate arrestance (filters).
Hydronic heating system: Heating system that
uses water, steam, or other fluid to carry heat from
the point of generation to the point of use.
Indoor air pollutant: Particles and dust, fibers,
mists, bioaerosols, and gases or vapors.
Infiltration air: Air that flows into a building when
outer doors are open or when air leaks in through
cracks around doors, windows, or other openings.
Laminar air flow: Streamlined airflow in which
the entire mass of air within a designated space
moves with uniform velocity in one direction
along parallel flow lines with minimal mixing.
Latent heat: Heat identified by a change of state
and no temperature change.
Load: The amount of heat imposed on a refriger-
ant system, or the required rate of heat removal
in order to maintain a constant temperature in a
building. Typically expressed as a unit of heat per
unit of time (i.e. BTU/hr).
Makeup air: Air that is used to replace air that
is lost to exhaust.
Mixed air: A combination of return air and
outside air, prior to conditioning and being
supplied to the building.
Negative pressure: Condition that exists when
less air is supplied to a space than is exhausted
from the space, so the air pressure within that
space is less than that in surrounding areas.
Under this condition, if an opening exists, air will
flow from surrounding areas into the negatively
pressurized space.
Organic compounds: Chemicals that contain
carbon. Volatile organic compounds vaporize at
room temperature and pressure. They are found in
many indoor sources, including common household products, and building materials.
Outdoor air supply: Air brought into a building
from the outdoors (often through the ventilation
system) that has not been previously circulated
through the system. Also known as “Make-up Air.”

A detailed list of heating,
air conditioning, and HVAC terms
Glossary
28
Particulate: Small liquid or solid particles found in
air or emissions. Airborne particles can be generated as a result of a mechanical break up of solid
matter (“coarse particles” ) or through chemical
reactions or condensing gases (“fine particles”).
Typically measured in micrometers, particle sizes
vary greatly in size and therefore behavior.
Particles greater than 1 micron tend to settle out
of the atmosphere but remain suspended given
sufficient air currents. Particles ranging from
0.1 to 1 micron tend to stay airborne with the
slightest air movement, and smaller than 0.1 will
typically remain suspended indefinitely.
PELs: Permissible Exposure Limits (standards set
by the Occupational, Safety and Health Administration, OSHA).
Pickup: Additional heat needed to warm the water
in a hydronic heating system after a period of offtime such as overnight.
Plenum: Air compartment connected to a duct
or ducts.
Pollutant pathways: Avenues for distribution of
pollutants in a building. HVAC systems are the
primary pathways in most buildings; however all
building components interact to affect how air
movement distributes pollutants.
Positive pressure: Condition that exists when
more air is supplied to a space than is exhausted,
so the air pressure within that space is greater
than that in surrounding areas. Under this
condition, if an opening exists, air will flow from
the positively pressurized space into surrounding
areas.
Pressure drop: Decrease in water pressure caused
by friction between water and the inside surface
of a pipe as the water moves through the pipe.
Static pressure: In flowing air, the total pressure
minus velocity pressure. The portion of the pressure that pushes equally in all directions.
Total pressure: In flowing air, the sum of the static
pressure and the velocity pressure.
Velocity pressure: In flowing air, the pressure due
to the velocity, and density of the air.
Radiant heat transfer: Radiant heat transfer
occurs when there is a large difference between
the temperatures of two surfaces that are exposed
to each other, but are not touching.
Register: Device that covers the opening of
the supply ductwork.
Reheat: Heat supplied at the point of use while
a ventilated air supply comes from a central
location.
Relative humidity (rh): Amount of moisture in the
air compared to the amount of moisture the air
would hold if it were saturated.
RELs: Recommended Exposure Limits (recom-
mendations made by the National Institute for
Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH)).
Respirable particles: Airborne particles that are of
a size that can penetrate into the lower respiratory tract. Such particles are often labeled “PM10”
particles, which include particulate matter with a
diameter of 10 micrometers or less.
Return air: The air that is removed from a space
and recirculated or exhausted to the outside.
RMS: “root mean square.” It comes from a math-
ematical formula that calculates the “effective”
value (or heating value) of any ac wave shape.
“True-rms” calculates the heating value based
upon the rms formula, providing an accurate value
regardless of the wave shape.
Saturated air: Air which cannot hold more mois-
ture, where the addition of moisture will result in
condensation.
SEER: The Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio is a
measure of the cooling efficiency of an air conditioner or heat pump. The ratio is defined as the
total output provided by the unit over a typical
usage period divided by the total energy input
over the same period of time. The higher the
SEER number, the more efficient the system is at
converting electricity into cooling power.
Sensible heat: Heat that does not involve a change
of state measured with a thermometer or sensed
by a person.
Setpoint temperature: 1. In a forced-air heating
system, the temperature at which the switch in
a thermostat opens and closes. 2. In a hydronic
heating system, the temperature at which the
boiler water is maintained.
Sick building syndrome (SBS): Term that refers
to a set of symptoms that affect some number of
building occupants during the time they spend in
the building and diminish or go away during periods when they leave the building. Cannot be traced
to specific pollutants or sources within the building.
(Contrast with “Building related illness”).
Sources: Sources of indoor air pollutants. Indoor
air pollutants can originate within the building
or be drawn in from outdoors. Common sources
include people, room furnishings such as carpeting, photocopiers, art supplies, etc.
Specific heat: Ability of a material to hold heat.
Expressed as the ratio of the quantity of heat
required to raise the temperature of a substance
1 °F to that required to raise the temperature of an
equal mass of water 1 °F
Stack effect: The overall upward movement of
air inside a building that results from heated
air rising and escaping through openings in the
building super structure, thus causing an indoor
pressure level lower than that in the soil gas
beneath or surrounding the building foundation.
Page 29
Static pressure: Pressure exerted in all directions
by a fluid or gas at rest. For fluids in motion,
measured perpendicular to the direction of flow.
Steam trap: Steam boiler accessory that removes
air and condensate from steam lines, and heating
units.
Subcooling: Process of cooling of a substance such
as a refrigerant to a temperature that is lower than
the saturated temperature of the substance at a
particular pressure.
Superheat: Sensible heat that is added to a sub-
stance after the substance has turned to vapor.
Supply air: A conditioned mixture of return air, and
outside air delivered to a space.
Time-weighted average concentration (TWA):
Refers to concentrations of airborne materials
which have been weighted for a certain time
duration, usually eight hours.
(TLV) threshold limit value: A time-weighted
average concentration under which most people
can work consistently for eight hours a day, day
after day, without suffering harmful effects. The
American Conference of Governmental Industrial
Hygienists publishes a table of these values and
accompanying precautions annually.
Ton: A unit of measure for cooling capacity. One
ton=12,000 BTUs per hour.
Unit ventilator: A fan-coil unit package device
for applications in which the use of outdoor- and
return-air mixing is intended to satisfy tempering
requirements, and ventilation needs.
Unitary system: Air conditioning system that has
all components enclosed in one cabinet.
Variable air volume system (VAV): Air distri-
bution system in which the air flow rate in the
building spaces is varied by mixing dampers,
but the temperature of the supply air remains
constant.
Ventilation rate: The rate at which indoor air
enters and leaves a building. Expressed in one of
two ways: the number of changes of outdoor air
per unit of time (air changes per hour, or “ach”) or
the rate at which a volume of outdoor air enters
per unit of time (cubic feet per minute, or “cfm”).
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs): Compounds
that vaporize (become a gas) at room temperature. Common sources which may emit VOCs into
indoor air include housekeeping and maintenance
products, and building and furnishing materials.
In sufficient quantities, VOCs can cause eye, nose,
and throat irritations, headaches, dizziness, visual
disorders, memory impairment; some are known
to cause cancer in animals; some are suspected of
causing, or are known to cause, cancer in humans.
Wet-bulb temperature: The lowest air tempera-
ture that can be reached through evaporation at
a specific air saturation point. Wet bulb and dry
bulb temperatures will be identical at 100 % air
saturation.
Zone: The occupied space or group of spaces
within a building which has its heating or cooling
controlled by a single thermostat.
