SUMMARY:Multifamily Passive House Design
DESCRIPTION:Part 7 of 9  \nPassive House delivers healthy\, quiet\, and comfortable homes in durable buildings. Passive House also provides a baseline on which teams can craft resilient buildings capable of sheltering residents from the violent storms and extreme heat waves to come. In this course\, we’ll cover a range of issues that go into planning\, designing\, and constructing affordable Passive House multifamily buildings. It’s a comprehensive overview\, diving into key details\, and demystifying the strategies for success. \nAgenda: \n\nIntroduction and safety message\n\nMultifamily milestones\nCritical early design considerations\nVentilation and ventilation systems\nCooling\, shading\, comfort\, and optimization\nEnclosure assemblies\nHeat pumps and space conditioning strategies\nDomestic hot water\nCertification process\nQ&A\n\n\n\nThe objective of this course is that at the conclusion\, participants will be able to: \n\nOutline common pitfalls in designing Passive House multifamily buildings\nDescribe critical pathways\, processes\, and milestones in Passive House multifamily optimization\nRecall critical\, multifamily components and systems and the sequence of consideration and integration\nSummarize how well established strategies are evolving and being successfully scaled

SUMMARY:2025 Title 24\, Part 6 Essentials — Single-family Compliance: EnergyPro Advanced
DESCRIPTION:Date: July 15\, 2026 (See upcoming classes below)\n\n\nTime: 9:00 am – 12:00 pm PDT\n\n\nType: Virtual Classroom\n\n\nLocation: Online\n\n\nCEUs: ICC:0.3; AIA:3; CABEC:3\n\n\nInstructor: Martyn Dodd\n\n\nLevel: Advanced\n\n\n\nExperienced EnergyPro users\, get answers to your questions\, address special considerations and see how to use the software most effectively to demonstrate compliance with 2025 Title 24\, Part 6 Single-family Energy Code. \nRespond to a pre-session survey to let us know what you’re most interested in\, and we will do our best to incorporate your requests into the session. During the class we will cover commonly asked questions and will solicit additional questions from class participants and answer as many of them as possible in the allotted class time. \nThe training assumes participants have at least an intermediate level of hands-on experience using EnergyPro software as well as experience with and knowledge of the Energy Code and the Single-family compliance process.

SUMMARY:Recovery Ventilator: Installation\, Energy Savings\, and Compliance
DESCRIPTION:Event Description \nImproved health and cognitive performance. Easier Title 24 compliance. Utility bill savings. These are the reasons to consider incorporating Heat Recovery Ventilators & Energy Recovery Ventilators (collectively Recovery Ventilators or RVs) into your next high-performance home project. \nThe instructors are a high-performance home contractor and energy consultant\, who together have specified and installed hundreds of RVs. They will draw on these experiences and data gathered from these units to better understand these mechanical ventilation systems and their benefits. They will cover the details of ducting to the outside for inlet and exhaust air and distributing the supply and exhaust throughout homes. Balancing airflow rates and maintenance requirements will also be covered. \nWe will also go over new 2025 energy code requirements for balanced ventilation and heat recovery in multifamily dwelling units\, how to add a RV to a Title 24 compliance energy model and the change in energy use and compliance metrics that results. We’ll present various configurations of RVs\, including through-the-wall paired units\, packaged HRVs and packaged ERVs\, and various ducting options. \nLearning Objectives \n\nUnderstand the basics of how Recovery Ventilators (RVs) work to improve indoor air quality in homes and reduce heating and cooling energy use\nLearn the 2025 energy code requirements for mechanical ventilation in single family and multifamily buildings and how RVs impact Title 24 compliance metrics\nModel a case study home and multifamily building using RVs and examine the energy use and compliance scores in various configurations\nHear best practices for specifying and installing RVs\n\nLearning Units  \n\n2.0 AIA LUs pending for this course\n0.2 ICC CEUs pending for this course\n2.0 CEA CEUs pending for this course\n\nInstructors  \nNick Brown\, Build Smart Group \nScott Kelly\, SK Fresh Air \nCourse Location  \nZoom link provided upon registration
