Carbon Reduction through Building Electrification – Part 1: All Electric Design and Construction
All-Electric Design & Construction Series
On the path to Zero Net Carbon Design, building electrification is the key to reducing operational carbon. In this course, we’ll share the nuts and bolts of incorporating all-electric systems into residential and small commercial projects, including tips for implementation as well as client communication. We’ll provide straight-forward information on current systems and technologies plus a look ahead at what’s emerging in the market.
Centralized versus Decentralized Ventilation
There are a number of new decentralized ventilation products and certainly more centralized HRV systems. What do customers need to consider when choosing between these systems for their new or retrofit projects.
A New Central Coast Reach Code for Alterations and Additions
California continues to increase efficiency standards of residential and commercial buildings through Title 24 Part 6, the Energy Code.
Heat Pumps: Finding HVAC Experts & Unlocking Rebates
Join 3C-REN and Resilient Central Coast for an informative webinar on heat pump technology for home heating and cooling. Finding a knowledgeable contractor is key to ensuring you choose the right system for your home electrification needs. Since heat pump technology is relatively new, working with an experienced contractor will help you identify the best solution for your home, navigate available incentives, and explore other electrification options.
HRV and ERV Basics
HRV and ERV Basics will provide introductory level information about HRVs and ERVs and how they are installed in today’s homes. Information will be provided to enable learners to achieve the following learning objectives:
Modeling All-Electric Homes in the 2022 Code
All-Electric Homes are having their moment, with state policies, incentives, and energy code providing builders, homeowners, and energy consultants a strong nudge toward all-electric designs. We will go over how to model all-electric homes (single family and multifamily) for maximum compliance benefit, including the Variable Capacity Heat Pump (VCHP) compliance credit and Heat Pump Water Heaters. We’ll also cover PV sizing and how that may differ for all-electric homes and mixed-fuel homes. Retrofits and new construction will also be covered with examples using tri-county climate zones.
Are Water Submeters Required for an ADU?
A Code Coach inquiry came in last month that had us digging through CALGreen, the Plumbing Code, State Law and eventually a direct inquiry to California Housing & Community Development (HCD). The question is: are ADU’s subject to the CAL Green requirement for residential water submeters for multifamily buildings? The short answer is, yes!
New Commercial Energy Savings Program: Contractor & Aggregator Learning Session
3C-REN is excited to introduce our new Commercial Energy Savings Program, which launched on October 1st, 2024. To help you learn more about how this program can benefit your business and customers, we invite you to join us for an overview & training webinar designed specifically for contractors & aggregators like you.
Appliances and Energy Storage – Part 5: All-Electric Design and Construction Series
