Washington State Energy Code Commercial Provisions Training

December 10, 2018 By SBC

Building air leakage can significantly impact the energy performance of a building through envelope heat loss and higher fan energy to maintain building pressurization. The Northwest Energy Efficiency Council is offering a workshop in December 2018 about the commercial air barrier requirements in the 2015 WSEC. This 2-hour training will provide information about air barrier installation and building enclosure testing.

TRAINING TOPICS INCLUDE:

  • What is an air barrier and why it is required in the WSEC?
  • How to calculate and document the air barrier surface area
  • Coordinating air barrier requirements with the design and construction team
  • Building enclosure testing requirements in the WSEC
  • Best practice testing methods for various building types
  • What happens if the building fails the building enclosure air leakage test?
  • Reporting building enclosure air leakage test results

PRESENTERS:  PHIL EMORY
