The attention on indoor air quality is higher than ever before with homeowners confronting wildfire smoke, viruses, and a greater awareness of healthy indoor environments and overall personal well-being. As of 2021, building codes now require balanced (Oregon) or efficient ventilation (Washington). As this takes on greater importance, consumers are increasingly asking builders about ventilation and filtration when searching for homes. There are several balanced ventilation systems and approaches to consider, and builders will need to decide which provides the best solution for their projects and customers.

Join us for this session with Stephen Aiguier of Green Hammer Design Build where we’ll go over the primary field-proven options for balanced and filtered ventilation in high performance homes.

What you’ll learn:

• Review primary objectives of ventilation in high performance homes
• Identify effective balanced ventilation approaches
• Explore filters and filtration options
• Understand wildfire impacts, additional considerations, and devise an emergency action plan
