Course Description
Professional Engineers have great advantage in understanding
the energy systems of a house. With new construction of
homes at a slow pace today, there is time for our nation
to devote resources to making our existing houses more
energy efficient. Standards and techniques used by the
Building Performance Institute, Inc. should be familiar to
PEs, who have a knowledge foundation in this field that
is greater than the populace in general. The country
can use the expertise of its engineering community to
stop wasting valuable energy and money. Certainly the
political will is there to achieve this.
While it may not be a profession changing opportunity for
most, this course will enhance what you already know
from your related engineering fields. It should allow
Professional Engineers to exercise more leadership in
their communities, where the Home Energy Audit and
Weatherization businesses are exploding. And it could
motivate PEs to gain additional credentials by
proceeding toward Building Analyst certification.

 Good course, 12.2.2011
|
Excellent information and will be used my this reviewer. However, someone needs to check the actual text as there are many indecipherable sentences.

Energy Audit Existing Home, 2.18.2011

While most of the content was good information, some of the styles used to depict equations were awkward, and not in keeping with proper algebraic nomenclature. Suggest all equations be updated using the equator editor in Word, or the equivalent in Mac. I also noted one or two typographic errors, meaning one more round of proofreading might be in order. Also suggest that more tables be included (ex., R values, etc,) and maybe an appendix at the end that summarizes all essential equations and their uses in conducting an existing home energy audit. It might also be useful to list the recommended equipment, several manufacturers and price ranges.
