In this seminar on PHPP Version 10, we’ll focus on the expanded treatment of heat pumps, cooling units, and windows in the PHPP – how to navigate the new inputs and outputs to ensure modeling accuracy. Practical exercises will provide insight into how to avoid common traps that arise in your everyday practice. This course will save you hours of toiling on your own and help ensure your PHPP modeling is accurate and free of those pesky error messages. This course delves deeper into key topics covered in Part 1 (PHPP: New Features) and will include exercises that build on the earlier work. Andrew Peel will walk you through the updates, implications, possibilities, and steps to better optimize your next projects!

This course was developed with Peel Passive House Consulting.
