ASHRAE Guideline 36 provides uniform sequences of operation for HVAC systems that are intended to maximize the systems’ energy efficiency and performance, provide control stability, and allow for real-time fault detection and diagnostics. Standardized advanced control sequences provide benefits including reduced engineering time, reduced programming and commissioning time, reduced energy consumption, improved indoor air quality, and a common set of terms to facilitate communication between specifiers, contractors, and operators.
