- Today we talk with Dr. Jeffrey Siegel about research on residential HVAC, filters, UV lights, electronic air cleaners, mini-splits, humidifiers, and ventilation abroad. For anyone who's interested in HVAC even a little bit. You'll thank yourself if you stay tuned to the end!

The more I learn, the more I learn that I don't know. I've been steeping my self in building science for the past 15 years and instead of getting smarter, I feel like I'm just realizing my ever growing ignorance.
Definitely a good one! As an HVAC residential tech this is such a complicated subject. There is so much to know.
I appreciate very much the discussion with Dr. Siegel and his knowledge in the IAQ arena and building performance. We have a design consulting start up business that is being driven be these understandings. High Efficient/performance building envelopes (passive solar design and alternative construction materials, ICF and SIP) , more thoughtful design and installation of HVAC (paying strict attention to the "V") as Dr. Siegel mentioned and powered by alternative, renewable and sustainable power sources ( solar, heat exchange, etc.) Recommend the book "Healthy Buildings: New indoor Spaces Drive Performance and Productivity" which was researched around the commercial, institutional and office/work space but translates totally to the residential built space.
Thanks for sharing all the information here on the channel! I know I’m gonna learn something new whenever I visit this page! Thankyou all ✊🏾
Since humidity control is one of the big components of IAQ, I'm interested in more discussion around the "water" / humidifier conversation on what are best practices in cold climates that require adding humidity to the space .
Thank you so much for this Corbett!
As an HVAC tech and owner, my goal is to merge science and engineering and technicians trade together as they are often at odds. This conversation was amazing. Thank you
Fantastic talk. Learned a lot. Thank you for this.
Corbett- great interview. I thought I had all of the talking points down when it comes to filtration, however, I learned a thing or 2 from this interview.
Great stuff as always eye opener on a few topics
Corbett,
Ironic that YT interjected a Febreze ad during this video! lol. Great info!
This is great content as we are planning out the design of our last home to be built to our specifications. Ventilation is my number one item of importance in the overall design. I have always been critical of indoor air quality (having been a career submariner) of the homes we lived in, it was always difficult to overcome the design and builder issues that make retrofitting improvements virtually impossible. Thanks for sharing this information!!
Such a great interview!!
Remarkable conversation!
Learned so much. A typical HVAC tech is not qualified to make IAQ improvements other than upgrading filtration.
Well just changed my air filter will be buying a merv 13 in the future and changing more often. Great information here. Think I need to supply my humidifier with our R.O.
Great interview!
We need to separate filtration from air conditioning. Tract builders in Phoenix are very price sensitive. Undersized returns, stamped return grills, and 1" "Allergen Filters" send the static pressure on the HVAC systems through the roof. The from mid October though the beginning of April the unit hardly runs at all providing no filtration.
very good info
