COURSE DESCRIPTION

A 2-day advanced/certification-level course that teaches students how to determine the optimal insulation thickness and corresponding energy and dollar savings for a project. This refreshed course is designed for participants who have industry experience and companies that want to expand their business capabilities by adding insulation appraisals to show insulation's return on investment to their customers. Participants will learn how to conduct a facility walk-through, understand the tools necessary to complete the appraisal, and how to create a final report for customers. Students who pass the exam will become Certiﬁed Insulation Energy Appraisers. Click here for a sample agenda.
