Training Location: NYSWDA Training Center (Building 1) – 5869 Fisher Road, East Syracuse, NY 13057
Course Description;
In this course students will learn the current Building Performance Institute (BPI) standards and procedures for initial home safety inspections and CAZ testing. Students will also review the principles of combustion and how gas and oil-fired appliances combust fuel to deliver heat to the home.
Attendees will be introduced to testing and safety equipment such as manometers, gas leak detectors, ambient carbon monoxide detectors, and combustion analyzers.
Attendees are encouraged to bring their own equipment.
Weatherization Field Staff: With the introduction of the new Quality Control Inspection requirements, it is doubly important that your crew supervisors are performing the HCR required daily test-out procedures correctly. Please consider sending your crew leaders to this course to sharpen their CAZ testing skills and to enhance your agency's compliance with HCR's policies.
