John, There is an excellent source of information on this topic on the CAUT website authored by Claud Kissmann who gave a presentation for us at the Dallas convention a few years ago. The link is as follows: http://www.ptg.org/caut.php/Kissmann.htm I think you will find this most helpful...

I believe if we understand these complex systems a bit better, we might get better results when attempting to have the systems serviced. I'm open to "questions" I can pose to him from this list, possibly taking along a recorder so I can get his answers down correctly. I plan to ask just HOW our commercial HVAC systems work, what typically goes wrong, and some clues we can look for to determine just what's gone wrong. I'd also like to try to talk him into offering a class at a national on this subject for the CAUT group as well!!! John Minor University of Illinois
