Connect over lunch for an engaging discussion on how vacuum wastewater technology is transforming adaptive reuse and modern building design at our Vacuum Wastewater & Adaptive Reuse Lunch & Learn, featuring Evac.<\/p>\n

With more than 40 years of experience, Evac has been helping building projects overcome site-specific challenges through innovative vacuum wastewater collection systems. 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

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

Lunch will be provided, along with opportunities to ask questions and connect with fellow industry professionals.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

What to Expect:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  • Vacuum Wastewater 101:<\/strong> An introduction to vacuum plumbing systems for new construction, adaptive reuse, and historic buildings<\/li>\n
  • System Components Explained:<\/strong> Overview of vacuum generators, interface valves, plumbing fixtures, and how they work together<\/li>\n
  • Design & Planning Guidance:<\/strong> Key considerations, design flexibility, and the right questions to ask when evaluating vacuum wastewater solutions<\/li>\n
  • Smarter Plumbing Design:<\/strong> Learn how vacuum systems enable flexible piping layouts, eliminate vent piping, and simplify challenging retrofits<\/li>\n
  • Health & 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
  • Sustainability & Savings:<\/strong> Energy and water savings that support LEED, BREEAM, and other green building certifications<\/li>\n
  • Real-World Applications:<\/strong> Adaptive reuse solutions and completed project examples from across the United States<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    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
