As the demand for healthy, high-performance homes continues to rise, indoor air quality is becoming a central focus for builders and homeowners alike. But what’s really in the air we breathe and how can filtration strategies create healthier, more efficient homes?

In this session, we’ll explore the hidden challenges of airborne contaminants in residential environments, from particulates and gases to microorganisms and the growing body of evidence around their health implications. Attendees will gain a deeper understanding of how ultrafine particles impact wellness and how filtration choices affect energy efficiency, HVAC performance and long-term system durability.

We’ll examine practical strategies for improving indoor air through filtration with whole-home in-line systems and how builders can differentiate their homes by offering cleaner, healthier living environments.

This session will include an overview of HealthWay’s residential in-line, HVAC-integrated air purification systems — the Home Defender HD and Super V. These whole-home solutions are designed to purify air at the source, delivering cleaner air throughout the entire home by capturing ultrafine particles, VOCs and microorganisms. HealthWay®, a global leader in air purification technology, will demonstrate how advanced filtration can improve indoor air quality, support HVAC system performance, and enhance the overall value and marketability of high-performance homes.

Whether you’re a builder, architect or HVAC professional, this session will provide actionable insights and science-backed strategies to help you build homes that stand out with better air.

Learning Objectives:

• Identify common residential airborne contaminants and their impact on health and comfort.
• Understand filtration efficiency (including MERV ratings) and its effect on energy use and HVAC system performance.

• Compare design considerations and product options for in-line HVAC air purification systems that deliver whole-home coverage.

Water scarcity is a headline that we see daily, however water conservation continues to be left out of the discussion for home builders describing themselves as Net Zero.  As we wait for mandates of water conservation in the housing sector to be implemented throughout North America, there are a few states that are going a step further and offering incentives to builders when they implement water-saving technologies. Decentralized greywater recycling offers a 25-45% reduction in potable water use and in turn a reduction in wastewater production. By building homes and multi-residential buildings with greywater recycling, potable water use can be reduced by 10,000 gallons per home every year.

Two states are leading the way in North America in offering incentives to builders and developers when they implement greywater recycling. Florida and Hawaii have implemented rebates and/or density credits to builders and developers statewide to be proactive during this time of water crisis.

Learning Objectives:

• Learn how decentralized greywater recycling is one of the most efficient ways to reduce potable water use.
• Understand that the sustainable home should always include water conservation technologies.
• Discover how states with incentives and rebates for the implementation of greywater recycling are leading the way when it comes to saving water.
• Learn how water conservation approached proactively as a reactive response will lead to the disruption of the issue of building permits.
