Topics that will be addressed include: why acceptance testing is required in the Energy Code, what role the ATTCP program plays, recent actions by the California Energy Commission that make mechanical ATT certification mandatory, and how contractors and inspectors can use the program to their best advantage.

What Energy Consultants Need to Know About HERS Features
2021-06-24 02:00 - 03:30 | Online Meeting
This class will cover the various Home Energy Rating Savings (HERS) tests that can modeled using California energy code’s “performance” approach, commonly used in new constructions and additions. Before any energy consultant “checks the box and hopes for the best,” they need to know about the resulting impacts on the builders and subcontractors in the field. Some HERS measures are easy to pass, while some can be very difficult to pass if not well-planned and coordinated with the project team.
Audience:

Energy consultants
HERS raters
Building department staff
Architects and designers
Contractors, installers, and builders
HVAC specialists
and other related fields
