Please join the Energy Code Ace team for this highly interactive vorkshop (virtual workshop), where you’ll have a chance to work in teams and with a whole group to do a “reality check” on the single-family Certificate of Compliance (CF1R) in the context of Title 24, Part 6.

Prerequisites

This is an intermediate to advanced course. We strongly recommend you have the following before attending this session:

• Basic familiarity with Title 24, Part 6: Residential Building Energy Standards
  
• Basic familiarity with the role of the CF1R and how it’s produced

If you don’t have these understandings, you can sign up for the following v-classes:

• 2022 Title 24, Part 6 Essentials — Single-family Standards for Energy Consultants
  
• 2022 Title 24, Part 6 Essentials — Single-family Compliance: Modeling 

COURSE DESCRIPTION

Energy Consultants, learn to do a “reality check” on compliance results and troubleshoot common modeling errors as evidenced in the single-family CF1R (Residential Certificate of Compliance).

This highly interactive workshop gives everyone who models single-family projects to demonstrate compliance with California Building Energy Efficiency Standards (Title 24, Part 6 or the Energy Code) a chance to work individually and in teams with the performance results from multiple single-family projects and develop an understanding of various project features that affect the overall compliance margin and identify results that are “red flags” for likely problems with the model.  

COURSE OBJECTIVES

• Describe the components of the CF1R and the information they convey.
• Describe what influences the EDR scores.
• Given a sample project, provide a rough estimate of what the total compliance margin and magnitude of components should look like.
• Describe common “error identification” and “troubleshooting techniques” in regard to the CF1R.
• Identify additional resources and tools provided by Energy Code Ace and the California Energy Commission.
