Where will you find our influence?
A browser search of
www.healthyheating.com will show us to be referenced in
technical papers, Masters and Ph.D. Level Theses and course
curriculums; and you'll find Robert Bean, R.E.T., P.L.(Eng.)
working on committees developing code, standards and
guidelines; and you will find us in interviews and numerous publications and
websites.
Here's what people are saying...
Who we are not.
www.healthyheating.com
is not a manufacturer nor wholesaler; it does not do
pro-bono engineering services, buy, sell or distribute
equipment nor does it do mechanical contracting. It is
also not an industry association funded by membership nor is
it funded by government grants.
How are we funded?
We offer select
web pages for sponsorship, use donations and revenue from our
education programs, Google AdSense and
fee based services to support the operating costs of the site.
Contact us for details if you wish to help out by
sponsoring
one or more pages with your
logo placement,
submitting content,
sponsoring seminars and webinars, making
a financial donation or using our
fee based services.

the 2012 period.
Our audience:
We serve the general public, practitioners, students and
professionals from the health and building sciences.
Our Sole Purpose:
To offer a research based
site for self-study on topics bridging the health and building sciences;
and to promote the benefits of radiant
based HVAC systems with
dedicated outdoor air systems as energy efficient solutions to
indoor environmental quality challenges.
Our Number One
Positioning Statement...
Buildings occupied by those approaching or already
enjoying retirement should be designed as self contained
residential healthcare centers starting with healthcare
standards in building enclosures, finishes and heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems.
Our Top Five Snap Shot Visions - others
are developing…
We see the aging of a relatively wealthy
North America driving a change in indoor environmental
quality specifications.
We see a continuing decline of skilled
tradesmen in a rising demand for technology enhanced HVAC
systems during a period of demographic significance...and
forecast this will have deep ramifications for building
owners and operators.
We see an integration of air and water
based systems;
a hybrid to deliver independently but
simultaneously air quality and comfort quality
in our buildings.
We see a evolution of combining technology
and systems into pre-engineered, preassembled,
pre-packaged
HVAC appliances, which includes proven combustion and power generation
equipment.
We see healthyheating.com as being an
online educational leader and source of unbiased materials
contributing to the advancement of science based indoor
environmental quality systems.
Our Missions are many
- here's a few…
To educate consumers and design
professionals on the relationship
between our physiology (body), psychology (mind) and the
built
environment.
To bring public awareness to the otherwise
"obscure" codes, standards and guidelines available
to the general public for use in specifying indoor
climates and energy management systems.
To make unbiased fact based information
including architectural and mechanical design and specifications
available to the general public.
To reposition in the mind of consumers, that
elements of architecture, particularly interior design and
HVAC must be repositioned as being part of the healthcare
industry instead of the construction industry.
Our Strategies…what we do...
We use our industry
seminars to bring awareness to the marketing of HVAC
systems; particularly the evolution of hybrid systems.
We support our missions with design
seminars through industry associations, educational
institutes and private clients.
We use editorials in various magazines
to discuss industry related issues.
We use eBooks to distribute unbiased sound
information to help consumers, designers, manufacturers,
contractors and distributors deliver health, wellness and
comfort systems
We make available written specifications
and architectural and mechanical schematics, which can be
integrated into the clients building contracts.
We contract with influential clients to
develop missions, strategies, and tactics to fulfill those
purposes and visions, which we have in common.
Our Tactics…how
we do them...
We work with contractors, distributors,
engineers, and manufactures on site, in the field, or in
the classroom on how to look at the industry through the
physiology and psychology of an aging consumer…the body of a 20, 30 or 40 year old is not
the same as a 50 to 90 year old…living within
buildings built for the youth isn't good business.
We train individuals
on human physiology and psychology to facilitate the communication
between consumer demands and construction deliverables…changes
the industry from "here's what you get" to "what
does your body need".
We reveal the content
of "obscure" codes, standards, and guidelines
and make them understandable to the public so individuals
can play a greater role in determining what they want to
own as a health, wellness, and comfort system in their home.
ASHRAE Standard 55 has been around for over a decade yet
over 95% of the industry is not aware of its existence.
We avoid, detour
or debunk specific industry status quo, which prevents consumers
from living with improved indoor environments. As one client
said to us..."If I as an aging person am building my
last space by investing 15% of a construction contract on
my homes health, wellness and comfort system…shouldn't
I be able to talk with the technicians directly
responsible for creating my environment?"
Makes perfect
sense to us!
