Overview
Length: 1 Hour Course + 30 Minutes of optional Q&A
As homes become tighter through improved building practices, code requirements, and retrofit upgrades, ventilation plays an increasingly important role in supporting comfort, durability, indoor air quality, and long-term performance. At the same time, more frequent wildfire smoke events are changing how builders, HVAC contractors, and raters think about ventilation because homeowners need systems they can understand, use, and adjust to changing outdoor conditions.
This on-demand training will bring together HVAC design, installation, and commissioning perspectives to explore real-world indoor air quality challenges. Through practical examples and field-based case studies, presenters will discuss how system design, filtration, and controls can help meet code requirements, manage wildfire smoke, and ensure homeowners understand and use their whole-house ventilation systems.Recommended Audience
