Students will learn intermediate level building assessment techniques, with a specific emphasis on BPI standards. The course begins by covering the systems, tools and techniques utilized during the visual inspection stage. This includes evaluation of the envelope components, mechanical systems and base loads such as appliances and lighting.

Next, you'll learn the diagnostic testing process. During this segment will focus on setting up and using a blower door for pressurization and depressurization testing. We'll also cover worst case depressurization such as draft and spillage testing and how to test for CO.

Lastly, students will be taught how to collect their data into a meaningful report and scope of work for the customer.
