Always a Rebel: Next Generation Heat Pump RTUs with R-32
This presentation highlights the radical changes in the Rebel rooftop as we transition to R32 refrigerants. From bigger, better heat pumps to smaller footprints, easier access, and product options; we’ve overhauled Rebel across the board to bring it to the next level with R32.

High Efficiency ERVs with Integrated Heat Pumps
In this presentation, we will focus on the advancing technology behind high-efficiency fixed plate energy recovery ventilators (ERVs) with integrated heat pumps, focusing on their implementation in line with Washington State's stringent energy code. These ERVs significantly enhance indoor air quality and energy efficiency, aligning with the growing demand for sustainable building solutions. Combining ERV's and heat pumps substantially reduces heating and cooling loads, making them an ideal choice for both residential and commercial applications.
A key highlight of this presentation will be the seamless integration of Oxygen8 ERVs with Daikin VRV heat pumps. This integration not only enhances overall system performance but also supports the transition towards building electrification. We will explore case studies and performance data demonstrating how this system leads to lower operating costs, reduced carbon footprints, and compliance with Washington State energy regulations. Attendees will gain insights into the benefits of adopting these advanced systems, including improved indoor air quality, energy savings, and a path towards achieving green building certifications.
CHRIS EBENER, NYLE
Domestic Heat Pump Water Heaters in Commercial Settings: Specifications and Applications
In this presentation, we will walk through the process of sizing and selecting the right product to electrify domestic hot water systems in large commercial buildings with consideration for building design, system demand, and regional climate conditions.
We'll walk through Nyle's portfolio of air source and water source products leveraging low GWP refrigerants and modular monobloc designs and delve into real world examples spanning new construction, retrofit, and useful heat recovery.

Decarbonizing the Built Environment: Strategies & New-Age Heat Pump Technologies
Year after year, humanity has been setting record high GHG emissions, causing record high temperatures. Buildings contribute nearly 40% of combustion-related GHG emissions.
As heating and cooling systems reach the end of life, building owners have a crucial opportunity to decarbonize. Choosing decarbonization is only the first step, as these types of projects must be implemented responsibly. All good decarbonization projects have two common, equally important, qualities: significantly reduce GHG emissions and are financially justified.
In this presentation, learn more about pre-design strategies, equipment technologies, heat sources, and other successful approaches that have proven to enhance efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
