This review is from: Testing and Balancing HVAC Air and Water Systems, Fourth Edition (Hardcover)
We have found your book to be a very helpful and convenient tool in our balancing business. The information is very good and easy to follow. We also appreciate the size of the book for inclusion in a field kit.

Repetitious,
By Allan Vandyke (New Zealand) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Testing and Balancing HVAC Air and Water Systems, Fourth Edition (Hardcover)
It is almost as if each chapter has been cut and pasted from the previous chapter. However the section on proportional balancing is well worth it.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Testing and Balancing HVAC Air and Water Systems, Fourth Edition (Hardcover)
okay so i buy books to improve my skills.. and so here is what i think of this book so far.. i just bought it.. and received it last week..
it's a difficult read.. it reads like you should know the subject before you read it.. it reads like you should be an engineer.. it is clearly a REFERENCE book.. it says that right on the Amazon page so don't think they didn't tell us.. i am going to keep plugging away at it.. after all i spent [...] on it.. i do hope it does teach me something usable.. i would only recommend this book to a die hard HVAC tech.. someone with experience..
