Which role is described as reviewing design and providing HVAC training on the design intent?

• A. Architect
• B. Design consultants
• C. Commissioning agent
• D. Mechanical contractor

Answer: (B)

The design consultants are responsible for reviewing the HVAC design and communicating how that design is intended to perform. They craft and refine the design, ensure it meets the owner’s requirements, and often provide training to the project team or owner on the design intent so everyone understands how the system is supposed to operate. The architect concentrates on space and aesthetics, while the commissioning agent verifies performance and may train operators on actual operation, and the mechanical contractor handles installation and equipment-level knowledge.
