Course Description:
Building Analyst
training provides the foundation of building science through the framework
of an audit process to understanding the "how's" and "why's" of building i
ssues: ice dams, mold and indoor air quality. It is the quintessential "hou
se-as-a-system" in what goes on in building durability, comfort and energy
usage.
This five day cours
e provides an understanding of the BPI Building Analyst Standards through c
lassroom studies and in-field activities. The in-field portion of the class
will provide hands-on training with gas appliance testing, blower door use
and set-up and proper and accurate combustion appliance zone testing in th
e state-of-the-art NYSWDA Pressure House and Heating Lab.
The class is followed by a review of the B
PI standards and the 100-question (2 hour) Building Analyst test. After the
trainees successfully complete the written portion of the test, we will sc
hedule them for the Field test.
