Last week I wrote a post about taking the Level 1 RESNET certification course. If you are just interested in doing basic (and less expensive) home energy audits, then this course may be all you need to start your career.
However, if you are interested in a career doing specialized, detailed, and more expensive home energy audits (meaning more earning potential for you as a professional), you will need to complete the Level 2 RESNET certification course.
What do they teach in the Level 2 RESNET Course?
While the Level 1 course can be taken completely online, the Level 2 RESNET Certification course is a combination of 4 hours of online classes and 6 hours of onsite field training using home energy auditor equipment.
In the Level 2 course you will learn about the following topics:
- Air leakage basics and common air leakage sites
- Single-Point CFM50 Blower Door Test
- Duct Leakage-to-Outside Testing
- Zone Testing
- Blower Door & Infrared Testing Together
- Combustion Appliance Testing
- Worst Case CAZ Depressurization Test
- Interpreting Test Results
As you can see, the topics covered in the Level 2 course will train you in the use of a variety of the technical home energy auditor equipment that will prepare you to pass the Level 2 RESNET exam.
If you are interested in taking your home energy auditing career to new heights while expanding your business potential, consider signing up for the RESNET Level 2 certification course in your area now.
