The market is on the move. Codes are requiring tighter construction and homeowners are more concerned than ever about indoor air quality. How do the latest air leakage requirements impact IAQ and how can one aspect of the code pose such a risk to the health of occupants?


In this presentation, E3 INNOVATE provides an update on the current and future air leakage requirements for new homes and discusses the importance of proper ventilation. Erik Daugherty, owner and founder of E3, will also share what every architect, builder, and HVAC contractor needs to know about creating effective fresh air strategies and how to avoid risks associated with tight envelope construction.


Attendees will gain an understanding of:

- The latest envelope leakage and ventilation code requirements and where the market is heading.

- The risks associated with tight envelopes and improper ventilation.

- IAQ challenges new-home owners have experienced.

- Design strategies for creating safe and healthy indoor environments that mitigate mold, mildew, and

radon concerns.
