Our speaker is Max Rohr, Education/Engagement Manager, Caleffi North America.  Hydronics offers an excellent way to address sensible heating and cooling loads in markets like Vancouver who are transitioning to a zero energy building future. This presentation will discuss the strengths and limitations of water-based heating and cooling systems. Considering the vast amount of buildings operating with hydronic systems today, a clearer transition path is required to adapt to the energy plants of the future. Hydronic buildings will play a key role in achieving net-zero emissions in Canada by 2050.

Max Rohr graduated from the University of Utah. After graduating he began his manufacturing career at the Caleffi headquarters in Italy. He has over twenty years of work experience in installation, distribution, manufacturers’ representative and manufacturing roles before returning to Caleffi. Max describes himself as an “energy nerd.” He now leads Caleffi’s industry engagement with trade associations, committees, industry initiative and collaborative manufacturer partners. Also an active ASHRAE Technical committee member.
