  • 3.00 Credits

    Residential steam and warm air system components are introduced, along with methods of piping and duct layout. Maintenance, troubleshooting, replacement, alteration, and total system designs are emphasized to help the student learn the various concepts involved. Prerequisite: HVAC124.
  • 2.00 Credits

    This lab is a continuation of HVAC214 and covers installation of steam and warm air systems, layout and make up of ductwork, multi-fuel units, and gas heating. Prerequisite: HVAC125.
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course is designed to teach the basics and essential techniques for the testing and balancing of air and water for HVAC systems. The course will cover the fundamentals of testing and balancing, including the mathematics, fan and pump characteristics, and the basic electrical systems. Details of fan and pump curves, motor drives, and related electrical systems will be covered. Testing and balancing instruments and use are covered, including measurements and analysis. Required TAB procedures are covered, including preliminary air and hydronic procedures, as well as the TAB required report forms, system evaluation, and troubleshooting. Prerequisites: HVAC first year courses or three years experience in the field. MATH111 and MATH131 recommended.
  • 5.00 Credits

    This course introduces electronic environmental and industrial control concepts and equipment to electricians, HVAC technicians, and maintenance personnel. The course consists of basic subject matter such as introduction to electronics; solid-state theory and devices; digital numbering systems; digital logic; and basic theory of analog and digital control devices and systems. The course then advances to Computer System architecture; programmable logic controllers; direct digital control for total energy management systems; electronic controls for HVAC equipment; and industrial control devices and systems. This course is intended for students with prior training in electrical theory and practice with electrical equipment. A review of basic electrical theory will precede the other subject matter, but this review is intended as a brief refresher only and not as preparation for the course material to follow.
  • 4.00 Credits

    An advanced control systems course intended for students who have taken and successfully passed HVAC 243, this course covers Commercial/Industrial control systems. Pneumatic, Electrical, and Electronic control systems will be covered as well as associated subject matter such as Variable Frequency Motor Drives, Variable Air Volume Systems, and Heat Recovery in order to fully prepare the student for advanced control systems applications. The course will then focus on new technology building control systems. System controller types, analog and digital sensors and actuators in system configurations, data communications and systems interfacing, DDC systems strategies and troubleshooting methods and equipment will be covered in detail. There will be a significant amount of hands-on lab work in this class on systems and equipment. Every attempt will be made to keep the material presented in this course as current as possible. This is an advanced course and its intent is to provide the student with the knowledge, ability, and experience to work confidently with existing control technology and adapt to new technology as it develops. Prerequisite: HVAC243 with a minimum grade of "C" or better.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Students are introduced to the principles and elements of interior design: the application of color and lighting; space planning and design compositions; the use of materials; furniture selection, styles, and arrangements.
  • 3.00 Credits

    The planning of color relationships is key to a successful interior design. This course explores the basics of color theory with special emphasis on the specific needs of interior design. Color decisions related to buying furniture, carpet or drapery, choosing paint color or wallpaper, hanging a picture or placing an object, are all explored here. Students will have the opportunity to work with various color media in the lab. This course cannot substitute for CDI122. Prerequisite: ID110.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Students will develop their freehand sketching skills and design abilities through effective instruction in freehand sketching of interior design elements and furnishings. Success in artistic creativity depends upon extensive visual exposure leading to acute visual perception and imagination. Through beginning, intermediate and advanced scenarios, the student will learn visual literacy and how to interpret various design concepts to the client through sketching presentations.
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course surveys the architectural and decorative materials used by interior designers. Presented are the properties, attributes and installation characteristics of the major interior design components: paints and finishes, carpeting, floors, walls, ceilings, hardware, cabinet construction, kitchens and bathrooms. Co/Prerequisite: ID110.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Application of the principles and elements of interior design continues with emphasis on public and commercial design. Layouts for interiors, use of color, materials and finishes are studied and employed in a variety of projects through plan, elevation and perspective drawing. Prerequisite: ID110.
