Book Description
The HVAC engineer today is faced with many challenges which include cost constraints, indoor air quality, legal liability, and rapidly expanding building code complexity. Too often designers are reluctant to learn and incorporate newer technology because it is just one more thing that could go wrong. However, when Ground Source Heat Pumps (GSHPs) are properly applied, they are a system that can help the engineer overcome the many barriers to satisfying building owners. The goal of this book is to assist GSHP designers in their efforts to create high quality systems for commercial and institutional buildings at reasonable costs.

From Booklist , May 15, 1994
Woodson focuses on the business of installing and servicing heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning (HVAC) equipment, but his is really a primer on starting any small business in the construction trades. He assumes his readers know all about HVAC and want to become independent contractors. He begins by discussing the advantages of drawing a salary versus those of owning a business; cautions that you need clear goals concerning the income you expect and the type of HVAC work you seek to do; suggests business structures appropriate to varying situations (partnerships, sole proprietorships, etc.); and clearly lays out legal and tax considerations. He talks money: cash reserves, credit, bidding, accounts receivable, meeting competitors' prices, and maintaining an inventory. He discusses setting up an office and the vexed question, for small businesses, of employees and employee benefits. He offers plans for securing jobs and tells you how to advertise. A direct, sensible guide applicable everywhere in the U.S. John Mort
