Event Description As more California homeowners begin electrifying their homes, heat pump installers will be faced with the challenge of navigating electrical panel challenges including condition, capacity, fitment, supply chain, etc. With panel and service upgrades being costly and complex, it’s important for practitioners to understand their options for running new circuits. In this session, you’ll hear from Electrify My Home discuss real-world electrical panel scenarios including visual assessments, electrical load calculations, and examples of different solutions for “making it

Event Description As the 2022 energy code wraps up its final year, and the 2025 code emerges, we see the trends of building electrification, healthier indoor air quality and improved resiliency continue to permeate the code’s evolution. This series focuses on current best practices for implementation of energy strategies, as well as what’s around the corner with the new code that will take effect Jan. 1, 2026. With particular focus on the Central Coast region, we’ll discuss on what to

Event Description A heating and cooling load calculation Is unique to every building. According to the author of the load calculation procedure “The accuracy of the load estimating procedure is only as good as the input, and the input is only as good as the survey.” This virtual training will walk the participants through the home site survey data collection procedure for all the necessary inputs needed to perform a heating and cooling load calculation. Learning Objectives Participants will learn

Event Description Working through specific examples, we’ll help project teams identify strategies that have the highest impact for improving energy efficiency, comfort and indoor healthy environments in renovations and additions. Beginning with a focus on client needs and incorporating occupant goals, a high-performance remodel may be phased or done all at once, may focus on efficient equipment and appliances or more on indoor comfort, and may be very visible or mostly behind-the-scenes. Come learn the art and science of high
