Tracks: Affordability Solutions, Pre-Conference Workshop
This workshop examines how to design and build high performance wall and roof assemblies that delivery energy efficiency and do not lead to water and moisture failures. In addition, you'll get a variety of solutions to relocation of HVAC equipment and ducts from attics. Steve Easley will use pictures from real-world installations to illustrate the do’s and don’ts to building high performance walls and roof assemblies that are affordable and cost effective. This interactive class is designed to sort through the myriad insulation system options in order to match the best system to the type of structure. Energy codes are requiring specific installation protocols for ensuring true insulation performance. This class also will explain installation and air barrier requirements by codes in order to develop appropriate specifications to meet these new codes and create buildings that perform with better real-world results.
