2024 IECC Commercial Inspection Bootcamp—Air Barriers

Instructor: Andre Jean  Description: Xcel Colorado– This session focuses on field inspection of commercial insulation systems under the 2024 IECC, emphasizing how insulation is actually installed, integrated, and verified during construction. Participants will examine roof, wall, floor, and foundation insulation requirements, with attention to continuity, alignment with air barriers, and protection from compression or displacement. The class addresses common field conditions that lead to noncompliance and provides practical strategies for distinguishing between cosmetic deficiencies and issues that materially impact energy performance. Inspectors will leave with a clearer framework for documenting findings and communicating corrections consistently.
