Energy Efficiency Plus Indoor Air Quality: Strategies for Improving Health and Reducing Energy Costs in Your School
U.S. school districts across the country are using Energy Savings Plus Health: Indoor Air Quality Guidelines for School Building Upgrades to ensure the protection of occupant health and safety during energy efficiency upgrades. Join this webinar to learn how to take a proactive approach to protecting IAQ while boosting energy efficiency.
This webinar will include—
- An explanation of the critical connection between IAQ and energy efficiency and the importance of properly integrating the two for optimal occupant health and building performance.
- Information on best practices, procedures, policies and key principles that facility managers need to understand to effectively protect IAQ while increasing energy efficiency during renovation projects.
- An introduction to the resources that can help with your district's energy efficiency efforts, including the Energy Savings Plus Health guide and the accompanying Interactive Air Quality Planner that helps you create a custom verification checklist for both your building upgrades and concurrent IAQ assessment protocols for each step of the upgrade process.
- A case study from a school district that successfully implemented energy efficiency measures while protecting and improving IAQ and occupant health in several buildings.
- A question-and-answer session.
