Retrofit Refresh: Best practices for existing home audits

This training program provides a deep understanding of the existing home audit process – providing practical, “boots on the ground” guidance and lessons learned for each building and administrative component. It highlights potential modelling challenges and offers information that supports the work of existing home EAs – contributing to confidence in the delivery of consistent EA services. 

Who Should Attend:
  • Newly licensed EAs
  • EAs seeking a refresh of the existing home audit process
  • EA candidates who have ideally passed NRCan’s Foundation and EA (House) exams
  • Industry stakeholders who want to better understand the existing home audit process

NOTE: This program assumes participants have a general understanding of building science, building processes and materials, and the Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) EnerGuide Rating System requirements, processes, HOT2000 modelling, and on-site practices (e.g., running a blower door).

This course is one of the required trainings for the Home Performance Contractor Network (HPCN)  Energy Advisor sector.
