Designing for Health in the Home - The Importance of Indoor Air Quality

As societal forces shift, new buying behaviors emerge and consumers are becoming more educated about the place they call home. Builders must also shift the way homes and communities are designed and built. High Performance Homes, in particular, are in demand, but must be designed differently to perform at levels which meet or exceed homeowner expectations.

Instructor: John McKeon

House as a System – A Holistic Approach (Part 1)

Webinars 2 and 3 explore the 11 critical steps involved in building a house as a ‘system.’ Customer comfort is paramount and we have to consider how the client will use their home. We must ask ourselves one simple question: “Am I making the homeowner’s life easier or harder?" Webinar 2 looks at how to avoid improper planning and design from the outset, both of which can impact the entire home and create costly errors and rework.

Instructor: Doug Tarry

Healthier Homes or Healthy Home Washing?

This webinar will cover marketing strategies and upgrades that builders can provide to buyers that actually make the home "healthier" - than one that does not have these installations. Joe will cover the basic concept of healthier products and installations and how you can avoid liability of overpromising.

Instructor: Joe Medosch
