Leveraging Radiant and Hydronics
to Achieve Decarbonization Goals
Hailey Mick, Business Development Manager, Engineering Services
With energy efficiency being one of the four decarbonization pillars in the U.S. Department of Energy’s Industrial Decarbonization Roadmap, the goal of achieving a low-carbon economy and attaining carbon neutrality is possible with the use of radiant heating and cooling, hydronic hot-water heating, and chilled-water systems. Discover how thoughtful design with these durable, sustainable, polymer-piping based applications can provide a compelling solution for comfort, efficiency, air quality, and other IEQ benefits while also helping projects meet construction schedules and budgets.

Introduction to the Integrated Design Process
Hailey Mick, Business Development Manager, Engineering Services
With the U.S. executive order requiring a 50% emissions reduction by 2032, and Canada’s goal to reduce 2005 levels by 40% in 2030, the road to ultimate net-zero emissions is continuing to press forward. Creating high-performance buildings through design and construction practices that support energy efficiencies, water conservation, and minimal waste are critical to ensure these targets are met. How does a project get there efficiently, effectively, on time, and within budget? It starts by incorporating an Integrated Design Process (IDP). In this session, you’ll discover the basic principles of IDP and how you can incorporate this interdisciplinary approach into your projects.

In-unit Piping Methods
and How They Impact Plumbing Systems
Stephanie Radel, CPD, GPD, Senior Manager Commercial Segment
Nick Morrison, CPD, Construction Services Supervisor
Building with different pipe-routing strategies can impact your projects in many ways. Learn how in-unit pipe-routing methods can affect time to hot water, pressure requirements, installation times, and more. Our recommendations can lower your costs, require less pipe, and include fewer fittings for a safer, more reliable system. Uponor provides resources, such as the Pipe Sizing Calculator, that make it easier to get the right materials for your unique projects.

Integrating PEX into Plumbing Designs
using ASPE Best Practices
Hailey Mick, Business Development Manager, Engineering Services
Value engineering building design and construction has increased the demand for hybrid piping systems, and many of these systems are incorporating PEX due to the extreme durability, profitability, and sustainability of the material. Learn the proper ASPE design guidelines for incorporating PEX in domestic water piping systems and how your projects can benefit from this growing trend.

Exploring Opportunities with Decentralized Domestic Hot Water Systems
Hailey Mick, Business Development Manager, Engineering Services
Decentralized domestic hot water systems offer a unique solution to many problems we face today. These in-suite, on-demand sub-station-based solutions conserve energy and improve water quality in domestic-water heating systems by eliminating large volumes of heated potable water and associated recirculation lines. Systems can be optimized to use the lowest-possible supply temperatures and largest differentials to enable energy efficiency while promoting safety and hygiene for the occupants.
