Review
My husband felt as though he was getting hands on training as he read the book..... --Michele Flores, Bangor Maine
Mr. Meyer has crafted a well-conceived, nuts and bolts book on the often misunderstood (and misapplied) topic of VAV Systems. This book will be useful for those in the HVACR field who are being introduced to larger commercial systems. It will also make a good reference for experienced technicians who are being introduced to VAV configurations with which they are not familiar. He cuts through the technical clutter of instrumentation and psychrometrics so often found in texts on this subject. He presents the information in plain language, with useful exercises at the end of each section. He has the ability, lacking in other technical writers who simply are reciting information, to teach with his words. This treatment of the topic meets the 3Cs criteria for quality technical writing: clear, concise, and comprehensive. I sincerely recommend it. --Terry M. Rogers, HVAC Instructor

easily understood for the hard to understand,
By michele flores (bangor, maine) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Variable Air Volume Systems (Indoor Environment Technician's Library) (Paperback)
i'm just as equally impressed about this book if not more than my husband. I thought it may help him out a bit in the field in which he chose as his career. especially when he's never been an avid reader, to my surprise he couldn't put the book down. he felt as though he was getting "hands on training". It's actually put him ahead of the gang. such helpful info paid off. He was given a raise due to the knowledge he had read in your book, that i got him for a birthday gift. this book turned out to be the "book of knowledge". thanks again!
