This is an office-hours style open discussion about high-performance building enclosures with Home Performance Pro Judy Rachel. We’ll be talking insulation, windows, air sealing, blower door testing, and the gap between minimum energy code compliance and high-performance standards.
We’ll start with an overview of high-performance building enclosures, and then we’ll dive into problems contractors, builders, architects or energy consultants commonly run into on the job, and how to address them.
Bring your stories about unusual jobs or tough calls—this is a space to break down the head-scratchers and share strategies for navigating the gray areas where building science meets real-world complexity.
