2026 Humidity and Dehumidification Workshop

Humidity is deliberately positioned at the centre of the conference narrative.

It sits at the intersection of building science, HVAC design, and IAQ, yet remains poorly understood and weakly addressed in many standards and regulations.

This session is proposed to bring together:

• Lew Harriman (remote from the United States)
• Joseph Lstiburek
• Australian practitioners with direct experience in humid climates

The workshop is intended to explicitly link building science principles to IAQ outcomes and to explore why dilution ventilation alone is often insufficient across many climates and building types.
