Summer 2021 was deadly for British Columbians, with over 600 people losing their lives in just one week of extreme heat. The rapidly heating climate is expected to bring more dangerous summers to come, so the 2024 release of the BC Building Code has introduced new requirements to prevent overheating in residential spaces.

Our homes should be a safe refuge, a safe oasis in the summer’s heat. In this webinar, you’ll learn how you can take advantage of passive cooling strategies and energy-efficient mechanical cooling systems—like heat-recovery ventilators and heat pumps—to keep people safe in their new homes.

This presentation from Community Energy Association and Ecolighten will go in depth on BC’s Information Bulletin B24-08 and will feature time for questions and answers from our audience of HVAC technicians, contractors and builders.
