Course Description

This course provides essential training for contractors who wish to offer Energy Upgrade California rebates to their clients who receive PG&E gas or electric service. It is a required course if you do not already have a BPI Building Analyst on staff and it is strongly recommended even if you do.

How to find air leaks in the building shell and properly seal them
How to insulate the attic plane
How to test and seal ventilation ducts to program standards
Essential combustion appliance safety testing practices and appropriate action to take when tests reveal potential problems

Course time is evenly split between the classroom and the demonstration house at PG&E's Stockton Training Center.
