SUMMARY:MA - R4.2 Stretch Code Documentation (PRIVATE EVENT - Town of Wareham)
DESCRIPTION:Make sure to use the GoToWebinar link to obtain video access\, this is required and verified for CEU credit. VIDEO VIEWING IS REQUIRED! \nCEU’s: 1 CSL\, 1AIA\, I BPI\, 1 Code Official \nResidential Webinar – Stretch Code Documentation \nCOURSE DESCRIPTION:\nBuilding inspectors cannot directly verify every aspect of the code\, but luckily\, there are experienced energy professionals who can provide verification and documentation of the most important energy code requirements. Clear and consistent documentation improves energy code compliance and saves time. This course covers critical documentation including ERI/HERS\, ENERGY STAR v 3.1 reports\, as well as PHIUS/Passive House. The presenter will review example reports and describe how to interpret essential data\, along with keeping track of this information with a one-page checklist created by the Mass Save Energy Code Technical Support Program. \nLEARNING OBJECTIVES:\nLearning Objective 1:\nExplains the documentation requirements for those using the HERS path for energy code compliance in Massachusetts \nLearning Objective 2:\nExplains the documentation requirements for those using the Energy Star path for energy code compliance in Massachusetts \nLearning Objective 3:\nExplains the documentation requirements for those using the Passive House path for energy code compliance in Massachusetts \nLearning Objective 4:\nDiscusses compliance tools and checklists that have been created to help navigate the Massachusetts residential energy code

SUMMARY:MA - R5.1 2018 IECC Sneak Peak (PRIVATE EVENT - Town of Wareham)
DESCRIPTION:Make sure to use the GoToWebinar link to obtain video access\, this is required and verified for CEU credit. VIDEO VIEWING IS REQUIRED! \nCEU’s: 1 CSL\, 1AIA\, I BPI\, 1 Code Official \nResidential Webinar – 2018 IECC Sneak Peak \nCOURSE DESCRIPTION:\nThe International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) is updated every three years to address technological innovations and keep driving the effective use of energy in buildings. Massachusetts legislation requires the Commonwealth to adopt the latest version of the IECC within a year of its publication. While the adoption has not always occurred on schedule\, the Board of Building Regulations and Standards is actively reviewing the 2018 IECC with an eye to adopt in the first half of 2019. This webinar will provide a look ahead to the 2018 IECC by highlighting significant changes from the 2015 IECC\, including new provisions relating to buried ducts\, the building thermal envelope\, mechanical ventilation\, updated lighting requirements and changes to the energy rating index compliance alternative. \nLEARNING OBJECTIVES:\nLearning Objective 1:\nExplain the Massachusetts process for residential energy code adoption \nLearning Objective 2:\nDescribe the ICC process for developing new versions of the IECC \nLearning Objective 3:\nIdentify key changes from the 2015 IECC to the 2018 IECC \nLearning Objective 4:\nDiscuss potential Massachusetts amendments to the 2018 IECC

SUMMARY:MA- R2.2 Equipment Sizing\, Manual J and S (PRIVATE EVENT - Martha’s Vineyard)
DESCRIPTION:Make sure to use the GoToWebinar link to obtain video access\, this is required and verified for CEU credit. VIDEO VIEWING IS REQUIRED! \nCEU’s: 1 CSL\, 1AIA\, I BPI\, 1 Code Official \nResidential Webinar – Equipment Sizing\, Manual J and S \nCOURSE DESCRIPTION:\nAccording to the 2015-16 study on single-family residential homes\, only 14% of homes meet the code requirement of designing mechanical equipment based on ACCA Manual S and Manual J. This course covers Manual S requirements and why following Manual S would not only lower energy bills\, but also increase comfort. The discussion will include the ACCA design process\, Manual J load calculation process & modeling\, which is the first step in sizing equipment properly\, Manual S over-sizing provisions\, available software tools to carry out Manual S calculations\, and ends with a case study demonstrating how the Manual J and Manual S process works. \nLEARNING OBJECTIVES:\n1: Provide background on the Air Conditioning Contracts of America (ACCA)\n2: Discuss the purpose and use of ACCA Manual D\n3: Discuss the purpose and use of ACCA Manual J\n4: Discuss the purpose and use of ACCA Manual S

SUMMARY:MA - R2.3 Duct Sealing\, Testing\, and Design (PRIVATE EVENT - Martha’s Vineyard)
DESCRIPTION:Make sure to use the GoToWebinar link to obtain video access\, this is required and verified for CEU credit. VIDEO VIEWING IS REQUIRED! \nCEU’s: 1 CSL\, 1AIA\, I BPI\, 1 Code Official \nResidential Webinar – Duct Sealing\, Testing\, and Design \nCOURSE DESCRIPTION:\nAccording to the 2015-16 study on single-family residential homes\, over 90% of all homes studied had all or portion of duct systems in unconditioned space which means all these homes would require duct testing and portions outside conditioned space should be insulated. This course discusses code requirements for duct testing\, prescriptive duct leakage requirements\, duct insulation and sealing requirements. With a discussion on best practices in duct insulation\, the presenter will discuss Manual D which is a process to design duct systems and required by code. \nLEARNING OBJECTIVES: ​\n1: Discuss the use of ACCA Manual D\n2: Explain how a duct leakage test is performed\n3: Describe the requirements for duct sealing and discuss the proper materials for duct sealing\n4: Identify the insulation requirements for duct insulation
