BPI’s Healthy Housing Principles: An Overview of a New, Free, and Innovative Course for CA Residents
The Eight Principles of Healthy Housing are important for understanding how homes affect occupant health, comfort, safety, and durability. These principles, such as “Keep it Dry” and “Keep it Pest Free”, are essential knowledge for contractors, HVAC technicians, real estate professionals, community health workers, and homeowners wanting to create healthier living environments
The Healthy Housing Principles course sits at the intersection of housing quality, occupant health, and energy efficiency; a critical focus area in the push for electrification, and driven by the evidence that indoor environments significantly influence respiratory health, injury risk, and chronic disease outcomes.
In this webinar, participants will be introduced to the Eight Principles of Healthy Housing while also learning about a new, free, self-paced online course designed to support preparation for the BPI Healthy Housing Principles (HHP) Certificate Exam. We'll explore each principle and demonstrate the course's engaging video-based lessons, interactive activities, and real-world examples. Attendees will also learn about the course structure, available resources, and how to access the training at no cost.

Heat Pump Water Heaters: Why Split Systems Matter
Integrated “tower” heat pump water heaters were an important first step in electrification, but real-world installations reveal significant frustration and limitations around space, noise, comfort, condensate management, and performance. Split systems solve these challenges while delivering superior efficiency, homeowner comfort, and installation flexibility.
This webinar explores how heat pump water heaters actually work, the practical problems created by integrated tower designs, and why split systems are rapidly becoming a practical solution for contractors and homeowners across single-family, manufactured, multi-family, and ADU applications. You’ll see performance comparisons, real-world efficiency data, and clear guidance on when and why to consider split systems.
Get ready to move beyond the limitations of tower units and deliver better hot water solutions that prioritize customer comfort and long-term satisfaction.
*This webinar is held in partnership with San Diego LEARN and is for CA residents ONLY.
Learning Objectives:
-
Identify where split-system heat pump water heaters can provide advantages for contractors and homeowners
