The Basics:

• What is CFM and static pressure really?
• How to measure total external static pressure properly
• Why inches of water column matters

Fan Law 2 Deep Dive:

• Breaking down the intimidating math into simple terms
• Fan Law 2 the simplified approach
• Real-world examples with actual field measurements

Game-Changing Applications:

• Filter pressure drop calculations at different airflows
• Evaporator coil pressure drop analysis
• How to predict total external static pressure before installation
