This online live event summarizes the new and revised requirements in the 2025 California Building Energy Efficiency Standards (Title 24, Part 6 or Energy Code) for single-family and multifamily buildings, and directs participants to informational resources and training that provide more in-depth information on the Energy Code. Join us to begin learning what the 2025 code means to you and your customers.
Heat pump water heaters (HPWHs) are an increasingly popular technology that are a highly efficient means of providing hot water to houses. This training will describe HPWHs, code requirements for HPWHs, resources for permitting and compliance, and best practices for enforcement. Topics Covered: Overview of water heater technologies and trends, identifying HPWHs in the field, Energy Code requirements for HPWH installations and replacements, Energy Code compliance forms, and requirements specific to HPWHs.

On the 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 our 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
New heat pumps remedy this issue largely with a technology called variable speed compressors. This type of compressor adjusts its speed based on outdoor conditions, improving efficiency and cold climate performance in the process. Today’s top-of-the-line cold climate heat pumps maintain their output at 5°F and can keep your house warm well into the negatives. Join us on December 4th at 10am Pacific to learn more about this exciting technology from leading industry experts. Samuel Beeson is a seasoned professional with
All-Electric Homes are having their moment, with state policies, incentives, and energy code providing builders, homeowners, and energy consultants a strong nudge toward all-electric designs. We will go over how to model all-electric homes (single family and multifamily) for maximum compliance benefit, including the Variable Capacity Heat Pump (VCHP) compliance credit and Heat Pump Water Heaters. We’ll also cover PV sizing and how that may differ for all-electric homes and mixed-fuel homes. Retrofits and new construction will also be covered
California is going through one of its most seismic shifts in building energy policy and design. The move towards full decarbonization of the building stock has started and the policy, technical and financial implications are being developed under our feet. We will share how heat pumps and other forms of electric heating can displace our long time carbon sources of heat. These systems are already available and many are cost effective today. Come discuss this shift and how it will
More and more buildings are being constructed with high-performance building envelopes. For these buildings, a well-designed and installed ventilation system is a must. Dan Perunko of Balance Point Home Performance delves into why ventilation and filtration are so important. We will look at indoor and outdoor air quality and discuss the effectiveness of ventilation and filtration at managing various pollutants. In addition to the large body of evidence we already had supporting the need for ventilation and filtration in residential

Join the PG&E Single Point of Contact (SPOC) service for a roundtable webinar on multifamily incentive programs for existing multifamily properties. You’ll learn about energy efficiency, renewable energy, and financing options that can be combined to maximize funding for property upgrades and retrofits. Programs featured operate in PG&E service territory, including: - Low Income Weatherization Program (LIWP) - Solar on Multifamily Affordable Housing (SOMAH) - ESA Multifamily Energy Savings - California Energy-Smart Homes Program - Bay Area Multifamily Building Enhancements
