During IMC deliberations, council members and fire officials flagged safety concerns about permitting certain flammable refrigerants outside traditional mechanical rooms; staff and ASHRAE committee representatives discussed narrowly tailored exceptions, charge limits and AHJ approval requirements.

This promotional course touches upon the basics of variable-refrigerant flow (VRF) technology, VRF system types, and their potential benefits. It briefly...

Speakers explained ASHRAE Standard 241’s key concepts — an infection risk management mode (IRMM), an equivalent clean‑air metric (ECA_i) tied to CFM per person and a standardized test appendix — and discussed that 241 is a standard (published 2023), not yet a code requirement.

In Q&A, panelists said cost impacts of resilient design are project‑specific, noted UC Davis Medical Center as an early implementer of pandemic patient units, and said ASHRAE 241 is likely to be referenced in future code cycles though it is not yet code.

The council adopted the 2024 International Mechanical Code with on-screen edits that add narrowly defined exceptions to allow limited installations or testing of certain natural refrigerants under strict conditions; firefighters and ASHRAE experts urged caution and coordination with local fire officials.

Based on ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 55*, Thermal Environmental Conditions for Human Occupancy, this course covers the theory and principles of the standard. It...
