There&#x27;s an old saying that, &quot;It ain’t what you don’t know that gets you into trouble. It’s what you know for sure that just ain’t so.&quot; Nowhere is that more true than in the world of home design, construction, renovation, maintenance, and operation. Having a house that creates the conditions for comfort, health, durability, and energy efficiency depends on a solid understanding of building science. In this session, we&#x27;ll cover the fundamentals of heat, air, and moisture flows, the building enclosure, and the various mechanical systems needed to make it all work.B﻿y attending the full session you will be entered into a drawing to win a copy of this book if your <a href="https://greenhomeinstitute.org/becomeamember/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">GHI membership</a> is in good standing by the end of day of this session!
