2 Two Main Goals for This Time Together 1.Preview what you will see outside if you take the tour 2.Share information about COACH so you can decide if you’d like to use COACH

3 Why Did We Create COACH? ►We love and respect the people who work in weatherization and the home performance industry, and ►We saw a need for a mobile, hands-on training lab, and ►We want to support you as you learn and practice, and ►We want to be the BPI Affiliate companies you choose to train and test you and your staff

4 House as a System When we air seal and insulate, we change how the building and all its systems operate. We need to inspect and test to make sure we are safe, the occupants are safe, and the building is safe: before we start and when we leave.
