Originally adapted from the transportation industry, this versatile technology offers a powerful alternative to traditional gravity systems\u2014delivering flexibility, significant water savings, and strong sustainability performance for both new construction and adaptive reuse projects.<\/p>\n<p>Join us for an informative presentation exploring how vacuum wastewater systems can support historic renovations, complex retrofits, and high-performance commercial buildings. Learn how these systems contribute to green building certifications such as LEED, BREEAM, DGNB, and HQE, while helping future-proof buildings against evolving regulations and rising water, waste, and carbon costs.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Lunch will be provided, along with opportunities to ask questions and connect with fellow industry professionals.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>What to Expect:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Vacuum Wastewater 101:<\/strong> An introduction to vacuum plumbing systems for new construction, adaptive reuse, and historic buildings<\/li>\n<li><strong>System Components Explained:<\/strong> Overview of vacuum generators, interface valves, plumbing fixtures, and how they work together<\/li>\n<li><strong>Design &amp; Planning Guidance:<\/strong> Key considerations, design flexibility, and the right questions to ask when evaluating vacuum wastewater solutions<\/li>\n<li><strong>Smarter Plumbing Design:<\/strong> Learn how vacuum systems enable flexible piping layouts, eliminate vent piping, and simplify challenging retrofits<\/li>\n<li><strong>Health &amp; Safety Benefits:<\/strong> How vacuum wastewater systems help reduce the spread of viruses and bacteria\u2014especially relevant for healthcare and high-occupancy buildings<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sustainability &amp; Savings:<\/strong> Energy and water savings that support LEED, BREEAM, and other green building certifications<\/li>\n<li><strong>Real-World Applications:<\/strong> Adaptive reuse solutions and completed project examples from across the United States<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This event is ideal for architects, engineers, developers, property managers, sustainability professionals, and anyone working on adaptive reuse or high-performance commercial building projects.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you to our Event Sponsor: <strong>CHC Hydro<\/strong>!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Explore how vacuum wastewater technology is transforming adaptive reuse and modern building design at our Lunch &amp; Learn Connect over lunch for an engaging discussion on how vacuum wastewater technology&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_tribe_events_status":"","_tribe_events_status_reason":"","footnotes":""},"tags":[],"tribe_events_cat":[],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/2030districts.org\/bellevue\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/3081"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/2030districts.org\/bellevue\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/2030districts.org\/bellevue\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/tribe_events"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/2030districts.org\/bellevue\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/12"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/2030districts.org\/bellevue\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/3081\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/2030districts.org\/bellevue\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3081"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/2030districts.org\/bellevue\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3081"},{"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/2030districts.org\/bellevue\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events_cat?post=3081"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
