What is the importance of regulatory compliance in HVAC design?

Regulatory compliance is important in HVAC design because it ensures that the system meets safety, health, and environmental standards. Compliance with standards and regulations helps to ensure that the HVAC system operates safely, efficiently, and effectively, and that it delivers healthy, comfortable air quality to occupants. Some important regulations that HVAC design must comply with include ASHRAE standards, local building codes, and energy efficiency standards. Failure to comply with these regulations could result in legal and financial penalties, as well as potential health risks for building occupants. Therefore, regulatory compliance is an essential aspect of HVAC design to ensure the safety and wellbeing of individuals within the building.
