Description: WAP Small Homes Energy Auditor (Intermediate) Course
A minimum of 1 year of field experience is required to attend this 5-day advanced course and skills verification on Weatherization theory and practical skills. This course prepares existing auditors to become more effective field mentors and supervisors of newer employees, with a full day devoted to supervisory skills and how to make on-the-job training most effective. Modules are sequential, and attendees must pass the test at the end of each module to advance to the next module. Attendees will:
- Review and verify knowledge of advanced building science topics to analyze and solve building failures and energy efficiency problems
- Review WAP and ASHRAE standards on building air flow requirements and learn how to develop work scope specs for optimal ventilation
- Design advanced work scope specs for air sealing and insulation. Learn about non-traditional air sealing materials and advanced bypass identification methods
- Review indoor air quality standards, and learn how to conduct or order the appropriate destructive and non-destructive tests
- Review heating system sizing, pump sizing, and near boiler piping, and learn how to resolve venting issues for high efficiency systems
- Prepare for supervision and mentorship of junior energy auditors, including train-the-trainer techniques and strategies
