SUMMARY:Electrification and Green Building
DESCRIPTION:View a free course with an overview of electrification.\n\n\nEach month in 2023\, USGBC will share a handpicked education course or two about a specific aspect of green building that will be free for that month only. For the month of December\, take advantage of a free course sharing an overview of the benefits of electrification for green builders. \nElectrification and Green Building \nBasic level | 1 CE credit | Created by USGBC and Triple Green Building Group\, LLC | Presentation format \nBeneficial electrification is a growing strategy for buildings to achieve low operational carbon emissions. Green building professionals are working to achieve energy optimization through electrification. Hear from an experienced green building professional and learn about the benefits of electrification\, related technologies and strategies\, and examples of what leading cities are doing. \n\nThis is an on-demand course\, but offered for free for the month of Dec\, and worth 1 CE credit.

SUMMARY:Getting Past Heat Pump Objections
DESCRIPTION:Heat Pumps are quickly gaining traction as a preferred HVAC and water heating technology\, but many customers and contractors are unfamiliar with heat pumps or remain skeptical. In order to meet California’s ambitious heat pump goals (6 million by 2030)\, contractors and other industry professionals must arm themselves with the knowledge (and sometimes the data) to dispel myths about heat pumps. \nIn this webinar\, you’ll hear from Larry Waters\, an HVAC industry veteran who switched his focus towards home performance in 2010 and towards inverter heat pumps in 2014. With over 400 heat pump installations under his belt\, Larry’s heard just about every objection in the book and will relay best practices for responding to such objections. \nLearning Objectives \n\nExplain why understanding a customer’s personality profile is important\nList one of the first steps to take before addressing an objection\nDescribe one reason why older vintage heat pumps spoiled the opinions of some customers & HVAC pros\nOffer one alternative solution for a customer who does not want a wall-mounted mini split\n\n2 AIA LU’s available for this course \n.20 ICC CEU’s available for this course \nInstructors: \nLarry Waters\, Electrify My Home \nAlex Sloan\, Electrify My Home

SUMMARY:Electrify Efficiently: Heat Pump Zoning – Challenges And Solutions
DESCRIPTION:Part 5 of 5 – December 15\, 2023 (12pm – 1:30pm) \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 one to one systems\, and combinations of these solutions. \nAgenda: \n\nIntroduction and safety message\nElectrify Efficiently\nZone control strategies\nAvoiding comfort sacrifices with zone control\nDifferent approaches for zone control to achieve efficient\, comfortable outcomes\nQ&A\n\nThe objective of this course is that at the conclusion\, participants will be able to: \n\nSummarize operational differences between single-stage\, two-stage and inverter heat pumps\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\nTo enroll into the entire “Electrify Efficiently (5 Part Series)” register HERE.
