2021 IECC Training

An overview of the history of the International Energy Conservation Code (IECC) in the International Residential Code (IRC) and its multiple compliance paths – including the role of a HERS® Rater. Using the 2021 IECC curriculum, the instructor will provide a common understanding of the thermal envelope (including the impact of windows, doors, and skylights), what is included in insulation installation grading, and advanced framing techniques. The instructor will also cover heating, cooling, and mechanical ventilation systems along with a discussion of the importance of duct tightness. Lighting, appliances, and clean energy contributions will also be discussed.

The 2021 IECC applies to new residential and commercial buildings AND buildings that undergo major renovations. You will learn how to ensure renovations comply with the new energy code. Understanding the new code will help knowledgeable contractors and subcontractors on upcoming construction and remodeling projects. 

After the completion of the class, attendees will receive a certificate from the International Code Council showing that they have completed 4 number of continuing education units.  This certificate shows you have knowledge of the particular subject area you learned about and the continuing education units are allowed to count toward renewal of ICC credentials.
