This course will discuss how architects and business owners can achieve outstanding performance and low-cost operation by incorporating high-efficiency, low-emission propane appliances into commercial new builds or retrofits. We will discuss the challenges of designing commercial buildings, especially those that do not have natural gas service, and how propane can help to meet resilience and sustainability goals and maximize health, wellness and occupant comfort. In addition, this course will explore applications for propane in different building types, as well as case studies where propane was used.
