SUMMARY:Next Generation Passive Solar
DESCRIPTION:Register \nEvent Description \nWe all learned the principles of passive solar design in school – south facing orientation\, strategic windows\, thermal mass\, etc.\, but the old rules don’t apply in the same way. Modern buildings should still incorporate passive strategies\, including daylight and ventilation\, but they need a new spin on the implementation to account for improved insulation\, prevalence of high-performance glazing\, and efficient HVAC systems and lighting. \nLearning Objectives \n\nReview passive thermal design strategies including basic climate analysis and guidelines for orientation\, fenestration and thermal mass.\nUnderstand current science relating to the impacts of daylight and views on occupant health and learn best practices for right-sizing windows and skylights\, managing glare and selecting appropriate visible light transmittance.\nLearn strategies to develop an integrated system for ventilation\, optimizing passive systems (operable windows and skylights\, stack effect\, cross ventilation) with mechanical systems\nReview a case study to integrate passive thermal design with a high-performance envelope.\n\nLearning Units \n\n1 AIA HSW LUs pending for this course\n\nInstructor \nAndy Pease\, In Balance Green Consulting \nCourse Location \nZoom link provided upon registration

SUMMARY:All Electric Retrofit with Electric Panel Constraints
DESCRIPTION:Register \nEvent Description \nThe building industry will need to electrify buildings at a fast pace if cities and counties are to meet their goals for reducing Carbon emissions. One of the obstacles commonly cited for keeping status quo gas systems in place is limited space in the electric panel serving the building. We will cover how electric panels are sized according to the electrical code and demonstrate tools to double-check those calculations. Options for making existing electric panels work will be covered\, including circuit sharing devices\, innovative solutions for HVAC\, clothes washing\, hot water\, cooking\, EV charging\, PV and battery systems. Often the existing electrical panel is adequate for a fully electric home\, and we will equip attendees with the knowledge to evaluate this key decision for themselves. \nLearning Objectives \n\nLearn and apply tools to calculate electric panel size according to the electrical code\nOptions for electrifying with limited electric panel space and service\nExplore real-world case studies to better understand the challenges and solutions\n\nLearning Units \n\n1.5 AIA HSW LUs approved for this course\n1.5 ICC CEUs approved for this course\n\nInstructors \n\nNick Brown\, Build Smart Group\nRobert Fortunato\, ForStrategy Consulting\n\nCourse Location\nZoom link provided upon registration

SUMMARY:Health and Resilience of Clean Energy Homes
DESCRIPTION:Register \nEvent Description \nHomeowner interest in our capacity to maintain healthy indoor air quality and increase resilience has skyrocketed since COVID and the proliferation of wildfires. Concerns around the ability to shelter in place during extreme events range from far-flung rural areas to cities. Air pollutants like respiratory viruses and wildfire smoke can be prevented from entering and overwhelming a home. The certainty of a steady supply of clean\, filtered air would mean fewer days missed from school and sports activities along with better grades for our kids\, increased performance at work for adults\, reduced medical expenses\, and positive impacts on our local economies. Health insurance companies acknowledge this and are more frequently investing in energy upgrades\, particularly in low-income housing\, as a risk reduction; proven to be more cost-effective than the expenses of emergency room care and illness. Many efficiency improvements go beyond energy savings\, they also make homes healthier and more resilient during power losses\, fires\, and extraordinary weather. It’s also possible that an efficiency project if not installed correctly\, can cause health problems. Do assets that increase home resiliency and occupant health contribute to market value? \nRE pros pursuing expertise in Clean Energy Homes will advance their knowledge of potential improvements in home health and resiliency resulting from common efficiency improvements\, expanding their credibility as expert guides for their customers. \nLearning Objectives \n\nHow common efficiency assets improve health and resiliency\nHome performance elements vital to indoor air quality\nHealthy housing principles\nSmoke infiltration prevention\nCase studies of homes that survived wildfires\nExamples of resiliency in power losses\nConsiderations in marketing and valuation\n\nLearning Units\n3.0 DRE CEUs Approved for this course\n3.0 BREA CEUs Approved for this course \nInstructor\nDebra Little\, Ajo \nCourse Location\nZoom link provided upon registration

SUMMARY:Home Improvements for a Healthier\, Resilient\, and Clean-Energy Future: A One-Page Guide for Homeowners
DESCRIPTION:Register \nEvent Description \nOverview of a new one-page guide for homeowners. With the premise that most home improvement projects have the potential to improve or harm performance\, it’s helpful to be informed of basic building science principles. The class will spotlight the benefits many homeowners look to achieve\, a recommended order of steps to take\, and building details in a range of improvements. Homeowners can meet their goals and enjoy their benefits while reducing emissions. \nThe guide was created to serve two purposes: \n\nTo inform homeowners in the early process of planning improvements to existing homes. To provide a descriptive path to increasing performance while reducing emissions\, mindful of the whole-house approach. While not exhaustive\, the intent is to raise awareness of the complete A-Z considerations in a short take-away info sheet. Much of the public messaging in recent years has focused on electrification but has left out the foundational principles of high-performance enclosures\, which are so essential to optimal outcomes.\nIn response to a question I’ve often heard expressed\, “I’m concerned about climate change but what can I do as an individual?” The guide illustrates ways we can reduce emissions within our households. Our climate actions can start with our own homes!\n\nThere are two versions of the guide with the subtitles tailored to each purpose. The one-page\, two-sided guide in hard copy will also be accessible online with live links to resources. In addition to homeowners\, the guide is useful as an educational tool for contractors\, programs and outreach organizations\, building departments\, and Realtors. \nLearning Objectives \n\nAttendees will be equipped with a handy one-page guide designed for homeowners. The guide is also useful to contractors and others as an educational tool to share with their customers.\nAttendees will comprehend the myriad benefits to both house and occupants of higher performance homes. We’ll address the topic of increased market value\, not often delineated from a professional standpoint.\nAttendees will be cognizant of a recommended\, science-informed\, step-by-step process of implementation that typically makes the most practical and cost-effective sense\, while also encouraged to tailor their choices to personal priorities.\nAttendees will be aware of the fundamental elements of a highly efficient enclosure\, what switching to all-electric mechanical systems looks like\, and how to attain low to zero greenhouse gas emissions with solar plus batteries.\n\nAudience \n\nHomeowners\nContractors: The guide is a communication tool to share with their clients\nRealtors\, programs\n\n  \nInstructor \nDebra Little is a home performance and valuation specialist with field experience in both appraising and energy efficiency. Since building her own home in 2007\, her work has focused on high efficiency\, low emissions\, and related health benefits. Debra develops and presents courses for real estate professionals on the technology\, valuation\, and market representation\, of high performance assets and solar (Public utilities\, professional associations\, conferences). Certifications: CA Certified Appraiser; Building Performance Institute\, Building Analyst and Healthy Homes Principles; Build It Green\, Green Point Rater; IDECC\, Certified Distance Education Instructor. \nCourse Location \nZoom link provided upon registration
