Ventilation TRAINING: DESIGN & INSTALLATION

Ventilation of homes is a wide ranging and complex topic, and you’ll find LOTS of people giving free advice online about it. Trouble is, a lot of the advice is either too specific or too broad, and you for sure shouldn’t believe anyone who says one product or system works perfectly in all homes- it just doesn’t work that way.

In this self-paced video course, you’ll learn the fundamentals and applications of EVERYTHING I’ve learned about tuning the ventilation of homes and small buildings, which I’ve broken down into the ‘5 Factors’:

1. Air circulation

2. Capture & Filtration

3. Humidity Control (dehumidification & humidification)

4. Outdoor air dilution (aka mechanical ventilation)

5. Pressure balancing

PLUS Tours of ventilation equipment and applications in actual homes, and 5 client practice cases to put your skills to work.

This Ventilation Training was designed by Corbett Lunsford after 15 years of consulting on home performance in new construction and renovations. Dive into the mechanics of circulation systems, spot exhaust, filtration, dehumidifiers and humidifiers, dilution air with ERV/HRV/supply ducting, and pressure relief with make up air systems. Go deep into the fundamentals of the 5 Factors, and get all the skills and resources you need to tune the performance of any healthy home.

Understand the dynamics of air/moisture/contaminant movement, basic indoor chemistry and microbiology, strategies for exhaust/supply/balanced ventilation, the difference between ERV and HRV, how to calculate the amount of fresh air a home needs, pinpointing the right size of humidifiers and dehumidifiers, and helping create or equalize pressure imbalances between rooms and in the building as a whole.
