SUMMARY:Zoning for Heat Pumps – Strategies for Best Outcomes
DESCRIPTION:Register \nZoom link provided upon registration \nZone control is a popular strategy for addressing different climate zones in a home. Many customers and contractors newer to heat pumps are drawn to multi-split systems that utilize a single outdoor unit to run multiple air handlers\, but there can be unintended comfort sacrifices if not done carefully. In this webinar we will focus on various approaches to zone control for efficient and comfortable outcomes. We will compare traditional zoning with zone control\, multi-split systems\, multiple 1-to-1 systems\, and combinations of these solutions. \n  \nLearning Objectives: \n\nName one downside of installing a single multi-split outdoor unit instead of multiple outdoor units\nExplain why many mini split brands do not work well with traditional zone control\nDescribe one scenario where installing a multi-split unit makes sense\n\n  \n1.5 AIA LU’s Pending for this course \n0.15 ICC CEU’s Pending for this Course \n  \nInstructor: \nLarry Waters\, Electrify My Home

SUMMARY:Building the Future: Electrification Strategies for Contractors and Architects
DESCRIPTION:Register \nElectrification is now the leading option for new buildings and major retrofit projects in California. 70+ municipalities have policies to phase out gas appliances and the state aims to have 6 million heat pumps installed by 2030. This will require a major paradigm shift in the way builders\, architects\, and related professionals approach the market. It also presents a giant opportunity to frame yourself or your business as an electrification expert. In this session\, Electrify My Home will discuss this transition and the related business opportunity for specifying and installing well-designed all-electric buildings. \n  \nLearning Objectives: \n\nExplain the importance of comprehensive electrification planning.\nList one reason why commissioning is important for HVAC systems.\nDescribe the benefit of keeping ductwork within the building enclosure.\n\n  \n1.5 AIA LU’s Approved for this course \n0.15 ICC CEU’s Pending for this Course \n\n  \nInstructor: \nLarry Waters\, Electrify My Home

SUMMARY:Building the Future: Electrification Strategies for Plumbers
DESCRIPTION:Register \nElectrification is taking form in California – gas water heaters are being based out in the Bay Area by 2027 and over 70 municipalities have policies phasing out gas appliances. The massive transition from gas to electric will “spark” giant demand for all trades\, including plumbers. In this session\, Electrify My Home will introduce unique business opportunities for plumbers with a focus on heat pump water heaters\, strategies for collaborating with other trades (e.g.\, electricians)\, and the importance of comprehensive electrification planning. \n  \nLearning Objectives: \n\nDescribe one feature of gas water heaters that’s lead to their phase-out.\nWhat is the percentage of California homes with a gas water heater?\nExplain why heat pump water heaters can be helpful for the electrical grid\n\n  \n1.5 AIA LU’s Approved for this course \n0.15 ICC CEU’s Pending for this Course \n\n  \nInstructor: \nLarry Waters\, Electrify My Home

SUMMARY:The Practical Guide to All-Electric Residential Buildings (Part 1): Why All-Electric\, Solar\, Cooking
DESCRIPTION:Register \nEvent Description \nThe case for building all-electric is stronger than ever. All-electric homes are cheaper to build and operate\, healthier and more comfortable to live in\, and have GHG emissions roughly half that of mixed-fuel homes. The 2025 California Energy Code makes heat pumps standard statewide\, which will accelerate adoption of all-electric buildings. This 2-part class will show why electric homes facilitate easier energy code compliance. Taught by two instructors who have built all-electric homes for themselves\, and will broadcast live from in front of their heat pump water heaters and induction stoves\, you’ll get an insider view of how to design and build electric homes\, including examples from their professional work\, how to overcome common objections and obstacles\, and lessons learned from the field. Attendees will gain a better understanding of the technologies that enable all-electric homes\, including heat pump heating and cooling\, heat pump water heaters\, induction cooking\, and heat pump clothes dryers. \nLearning Objectives \n\nWhy All-Electric homes are superior to typical mixed fuel homes in terms of cost\, health\, emissions\, and quality of life\nKey products and systems used in all-electric homes (heat pumps for space conditioning\, heat pump water heaters\, induction cooktops\, and electric clothes dryers)\nHow to model all-electric systems for Title 24 compliance\nCost-effectiveness of all-electric designs compared to traditional designs\nSingle-family and multifamily examples plus remodels and ADUs\nQuality of life reasons to consider all-electric designs\n\nLearning Units \n\n1.50 AIA LUs will apply for this course\n0.15 ICC CEUs will apply for this course\n\nInstructors  \nNick Brown\, Build Smart Group \nRobert Fortunato\, ForStrategy Consulting\, Inc. \nCourse Location \nZoom link provided upon registration.
