A House Needs to Breathe...Or Does It? Free CE Webinar, October 19, 12 - 1 pm EST
Event Description
There's an old saying that, "It ain’t what you don’t know that gets you into trouble. It’s what you know for sure that just ain’t so." Nowhere is that more true than in the world of home design, construction, renovation, maintenance, and operation. Having a house that creates the conditions for comfort, health, durability, and energy efficiency depends on a solid understanding of building science. In this session, we'll cover the fundamentals of heat, air, and moisture flows, the building enclosure, and the various mechanical systems needed to make it all work.
