Add to Calendar 2024-11-06 12:00:00 2024-11-06 13:00:00 America/New_York Navigating Indoor Air Quality Challenges While Saving Energy - Free CE Webinar We will explore the intersection of indoor air quality (IAQ) and green home building. While the green building movement is delivering on sustainability and energy efficiency, it often overlooks a critical component: the health of the home's occupants. Many green building initiatives inadvertently compromise IAQ, leading to environmentally friendly homes that are not necessarily healthy. Building codes need to catch up to modern technology. The idea that a home's square footage and number of bedrooms plus one somehow leads to proper ventilation to ensure breathable air needs to be updated, especially when modern software algorithms can instantly ascertain the Goldilocks scenario as to when and for how long fresh air rates are required. We will explore what IAQ is and the role that early intervention with pollutant source awareness can play in more innovative, more energy-efficient, healthy homes.
