Free Webinar: Electrification & Home Performance Series: 5 - How Tight is Too Tight?, July 23, 10 am - 12 pm PT
Event Description
Building electrification replaces fossil fuel systems with electric alternatives. As California shifts to all-electric homes, understanding home performance is essential. Key factors like energy efficiency, air-sealing, and insulation reduce energy use, improve air quality, and increase comfort. High performance homes use less energy, making electrification smoother and more sustainable.
This class is the fifth in a series on Electrification & Home Performance and covers the relationship between leaky buildings and energy efficiency.
Enhance knowledge with a single class or complete the series for a thorough understanding of the relationship between home performance and electrification.
Target Audience:

Home Energy Professionals
Code Officials
Homeowners
Learning Outcomes:

The causes and impacts of stack, mechanical, and wind effects
How tighter homes provide benefits in comfort, durability, and energy savings
An understanding of the process of conducting a building infiltration test
