SUMMARY:Deeper\, Healthier Electrification: Passive House Retrofits
DESCRIPTION:Join Emu Passive for a free webinar on Passive House Retrofits as a healthier pathway to the electrification of the existing building stock\, in collaboration with Passive House Massachusetts. \nElectrifying existing buildings is a crucial step toward reducing reliance on fossil fuels\, but it introduces certain challenges. These include the risk of diminished resilience in the built environment during power outages and increased costs for backup power solutions. \nThis presentation explores how integrating Passive House standards into building retrofits can enhance both energy efficiency and resilience. It highlights the long-term benefits of these standards\, not only in improving a building’s ability to withstand power disruptions\, but also in boosting occupant comfort\, health\, and overall quality of life. \n2 PHI Continuing Education credits are available. \nLearn more and register at: https://www.linkedin.com/events/deeper-healthierelectrification7381442959545864193

SUMMARY:Passive House As An Indoor Air Quality Strategy (with Emu Passive)
DESCRIPTION:Passive House standards are widely recognized as the gold standard for building energy efficiency. However\, focusing solely on energy savings overlooks one of their greatest benefits: significantly enhanced indoor air quality. \nThis presentation delves into various indoor air quality metrics and demonstrates how Passive House standards surpass code-minimum construction in improving these factors. By combining superior air tightness with a continuous supply of filtered\, fresh air\, Passive House buildings achieve markedly healthier living environments. This applies not only to new builds but also to retrofit projects\, offering long-term benefits for occupant well-being and comfort. \nThis event is being offered in partnership with Emu Passive. \nThis event is brought to you by the Sponsors of Mass Save.

SUMMARY:Emerging High Performance Glazing Technologies [Partner Event]
DESCRIPTION:Evolving energy standards and architectural trends put greater emphasis on glazing performance now than ever before. This course reflects on traditional glazing systems\, limitations\, and opportunities to dramatically improve the thermal efficiency of the building envelope through emerging technologies. Attendees will gain insight into how glazing systems affect overall wall performance and a core understanding of high-performance glazing components and assemblies. \nPresenter Bio: Jared Blum is a Senior Architectural Representative for Alpen High Performance Products\, with over 25 years of experience in the window industry. Over the past 8 years\, he has worked closely with the architectural community\, specializing in the performance and integration of window systems in a broad range of projects from new construction multi-family buildings to historic preservation projects. \nRegister Here
