Professional Excellence and BPI Certification
What most contractors and homeowners don't realize is that of the 128 million homes in America, many were constructed before modern building codes were in place. Without proper guidelines for designing, building, and maintaining residences, the current condition of American homes is one of the main reasons for unnecessary fossil fuel consumption. Our homes are responsible for more than 20% of the GHG (greenhouse gas emissions) in the country and this number only goes higher as the quality of homes further worsens as they get older. Unfortunately, most contractors are not prepared to identify the correct issues to provide useful solutions to the most common issues that lead to excessive energy-consuming homes.
BPI certification will give you the tools to analyze and correct any deficient features in older (and even modern!) residences. Professionals with BPI certification are currently in HUGE demand since so many local and regional government entities now require a BPI credential to be eligible for weatherization and energy audit-related tax credits.
