SUMMARY:Heat Pump Zoning – Challenges and Solutions
DESCRIPTION:Description:\nZone control is a popular strategy for addressing different comfort requirements for different areas in a home. Many customers and contractors new to heat pump installations recognize the advantages of multi-split systems using a single outdoor unit to run multiple air handlers but could cause unintended discomfort if those installations are not carried out carefully. This class will focus on various approaches to zone control for efficient and comfortable outcomes and will compare traditional zoning with multi-split systems\, multiple 1-to-1 systems\, and combinations of these solutions. \n  \nLearning Outcomes: \nAs a result of attending this class\, participants will be able to: \n\nIdentify scenarios in which installing a multi-split system is the best option\nExplain the advantage of installing multiple outdoor units instead of a single multi-split outdoor unit when necessary\nUnderstand why traditional zone control is not the best option for many mini split systems \n\nTarget Audience: \n\nContractors\nElectricians\nGeneral\n\nPrerequisite(s): \n\nN/A\n\nLearning Units: \n\nN/A\n\nInstructor Information:  \nLarry Waters \nLarry Waters is the founder of Electrify My Home\, a first-of-its-kind electrification company specializing in residential electrification and workforce training.

SUMMARY:I-REN C&S Training: Embodied Carbon & Passive House
DESCRIPTION:Course Description: The Passive House standard has empowered design and construction teams to dramatically lower operational energy use and carbon emissions while increasing comfort\, health\, and resilience. Consequently\, many Passive House practitioners seek to expand their climate-mitigation impact by systematically reducing a building’s embodied carbon emissions. In this course\, we’ll deconstruct the meaning of embodied carbon\, the frameworks for understanding it\, and its role in building delivery. We’ll look at the tools\, the strategies\, and case studies. Learners will emerge with actionable understanding and skills to expand their sustainable practices. \nCredits: 2 AIA LU; ICC \nCEUs: 0.15 \nInstructor: The Passive House Network

SUMMARY:Practical and Efficient Hot Water Delivery: Meeting Hot Water Demand with Heat Pump Water Heaters
DESCRIPTION:Course Description: On average Californians consume less water than the residents of other states. Even so there is a need for us to conserve even more water. The construction community has an opportunity to further reduce residential water use in ways that do not feel like conservation to customers. In this class\, Dan Perunko of Balance Point Home Performance looks at changing the way hot water is stored and delivered to the tap in residential buildings. The theory behind our approach is called “Structured Plumbing”. This will be a practical class focusing on how to install or modify hot water plumbing following the principles of “Structured Plumbing”. The presentation is based on completed projects including retrofits and new construction. \n\nAgenda:\n\n\nIntroduction and safety message\nOverview of structured plumbing design\nMaterial choices and water flow\nPump options\nTypical plumbing layout vs the ideal plumbing layout\nAdvantages and limitations of retrofit plumbing projects\nCase study projects – three examples\nReview as found plumbing layout\nDesign options and install techniques\nDiscuss missed opportunities\nExamine performance of completed system\n\n\n\n\nObjectives:\n\nThe objective of this course is that at the conclusion\, participants will be able to: \n\nConvey the importance of water conservation measures that do not negatively impact the homeowner’s comfort\nCite the annual volume of water a typical household can save by adopting structured plumbing\nDiscuss how reducing pipe diameter decreases the wait time for hot water at a fixture\nPresent strategies for installing a structured plumbing system in an existing home\nPractice evaluating existing plumbing layouts to decide if existing pipe should be reused or rerouted\nSummarize the best options for locating hot water tanks and recirculation pumps with different floor plans\nList the material choices available for replumbing hot water systems (each material will be evaluated for its impact on water flow and velocity)\nArticulate and synthesize how each component and process involved in electrical upgrades directly impacts the electrical efficiency and overall electrical performance of a house. This includes optimizing energy conversion efficiency\, reducing losses\, and improving the reliability and stability of the electrical infrastructure\n\n\n\n\nAudience Level:\nIntermediate\n\n\n\nContinuing Education Credits:\n\nSee below \n\n\n\nAIA\n2.5\n\n\n\nBPI\n3\n\n\n\nCABEC\n3\n\n\n\nHBX\n3\n\n\n\nSector:\nResidential

SUMMARY:Electrify Efficiently: Overcoming Heat Pump Objections (Part 1 of 5)
DESCRIPTION:Heat Pumps are quickly gaining traction as a preferred HVAC and water heating technology. California has a goal for six million installed heat pumps by 2030\, and state plans indicate that new gas furnace and water heaters will not be permitted after 2030. While the path forward for heat pumps seems clear\, the technology is still foreign to most homeowners. To meet the above-mentioned goals\, 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.

SUMMARY:Energy Code Compliance Verification (formerly HERS) – Overview and Envelope
DESCRIPTION:Event Description \nUnder the new 2025 energy code\, HERS rating is now called Energy Code Compliance (ECC)\, but regardless of the name change\, the 3rd-party verification process is still a great way to improve energy performance and meet the Title 24 Energy code. In this two-part course\, we’ll cover what\narchitects and builders need to know to successfully integrate ECC measures into residential design and construction. Part 1 will provide an overview of ECC verification\, show how it fits into the building code and address envelope-related ECC measures. \nLearning Objectives \n\nLearn the roles and communication points for integrating ECC measures into permit plans\, Title 24 documents and construction schedules.\nIdentify the library of ECC measures and which are Mandatory/Prescriptive and which are optional for use in Performance compliance.\nUnderstand the requirements for Quality Insulation Installation (QII) and tips for passing the first time.\nLearn the process for checking Air Leakage and how to use the tools at key construction milestones.\n\nLearning Units \n\n1.50 AIA LUs will apply for this course\n0.15 ICC CEUs will apply for this course\n1.50 CEA CEUs will apply for this course\n\nInstructors  \nJennifer Rennick\, In Balance Green Consulting \nPaul Dunn\, In Balance Green Consulting \nCourse Location \nZoom link provided upon registration.

SUMMARY:Practical Guide to All-Electric Residential Buildings (Webinar)
DESCRIPTION:Building All-Electric homes is becoming increasingly stronger than ever. These homes are not only cheaper to construct and operate\, but they also offer healthier and more comfortable living environments. Additionally\, they produce roughly half the greenhouse gas emissions compared to mixed fuel homes. The 2025 California energy code is set to accelerate the adoption of All-Electric buildings\, making compliance with energy regulations easier. This class\, led by two experienced instructors who have personally built All-Electric homes\, provides an insider’s perspective on designing and constructing electric homes. The instructors will share examples from their professional work\, address common objections and obstacles\, and offer valuable lessons learned from the field. Attendees will gain a deeper understanding of the technologies that make All-Electric homes possible\, including Heat Pumps\, Heat Pump Water Heaters\, Induction Cooking\, Heat Pump Clothes Dryers. Join us to explore why All-Electric homes are the future of sustainable living and how they facilitate easier energy code compliance.
