Expand your skillset with Retrotec’s 3 Day Large Building Training! This intermediate course will provide an understanding of the role that air leakage plays in buildings. The principles in this training course apply to residential houses, apartment buildings, office, commercial, high-rise, and industrial buildings, as well as an array of other applications.
 
We will discuss real world problems that occur in buildings, why they leak, where they leak, as well as the impact of that leakage. You will gain a better understanding of the benefits of airtightness, the theory of air barriers and the importance of ventilation in well-designed buildings.
 
Attendees receive a Manufacturer's Certification at end of training session.
 
Please note: Effective July 1st 2023, individuals testing multi-unit residential buildings in Washington State shall be trained and certified by an certification body that is, at the time of permit application, an ISO 17024 accredited certification body.  Retrotec's Large Building Training is a manufacturer certification and does not meet this requirement yet. We hope to correct this in future trainings. For more information please contact [email protected].
