C3) High Performance Homes training for Code OfficialsJohn Spillman, LEED for Homes Quality Assurance Designee, Green Grater, Earth Advantage & Energy Trust of Oregon

The course will provide an overview of what goes into the nearly 40% of new homes in Oregon that are built to earn an EPS, a third party verification provided by Energy Trust of Oregon that signals high levels of energy efficiency. You will learn the why, how and where the most current building techniques and materials are being used to create high performing homes, and how the EPS standard helps the building industry prepare for increases in energy efficiency standards that are required in future code cycles. Why does EPS matter to code officials? The 2017 ORSC energy requirements represent an approx. 9% increase in the energy efficiency compared to the 2014 ORSC standard. Similar increases in standards are expected to occur in future code cycles, and above-code EPS-rated homes help the building industry prepare for these changes. The high performance home of today can be considered the code home of tomorrow, and this training will provide code officials with insights into the features and approaches builders are using today and how they factor into recent code changes and beyond.

this session is sponsored by Energy trust of Oregon.

learning Objectives:• Review building science concepts of thermodynamics, energy, and heat transfer• Learn about air movement and it’s effects on the thermal boundary’s insulating capacity• Gain an understanding of the features and techniques that go into EPS-rated high performance homes• Understand new home building approaches, technologies, and emerging wall systems• Look at an overview of solar technology and solar ready infrastructure• Anticipate future increases in energy code standards• Learn tips for evaluating compliance with energy measures during field inspections

target Audience: Code officials, new home builders, subcontractors

John is a trainer and technical consultant with Earth Advantage. He teaches classes to Energy Auditors, Builders, Architects/Designers, Real Estate Professionals and Building Code officials. John has been promoting sustainable building and energy efficiency in both new and existing residential construction with Earth Advantage since 2009. John’s construction background is in residential remodeling. He is a LEED for Homes Quality Assurance Designee and Green Rater.
