Telgian Engineering & Consulting, LLC (TEC) fire protection expert April Musser will present an “Energy Code Impact on Commissioning and Integrated Testing” webinar on Monday, June 21, 2021 from 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM (ET). Offered by the Society of Fire Protection Engineers (SFPE), the webinar is intended to provide an explanation of the driving factors behind commissioning and integrated testing requirements. Musser’s presentation will also define the roles and responsibilities of architects, designers, engineers, and jurisdictional enforcement personnel in the commissioning and integrated testing process.

“Changes in the International Energy Conservation Code (IECC), as well as American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) standards and NFPA 1, Fire Code are all driving new requirements for commissioning and integrated testing,” says Musser. “During this webinar, participants will learn the definitions of acceptance testing, commissioning, and integrated testing. In addition, they will learn the proper path to compliance with the updated IECC, ASHRAE, and NFPA requirements.”

This presentation is designed to provide a road map to conformance via the requirements in NFPA 3, Standard for Commissioning of Fire Protection and Life Safety Systems and NFPA 4, Standard for Integrated Fire Protection and Life Safety Systems Testing.
