Building a Better Air Barrier Starts in Design

Stephanie Dailey is joined by special guest Ben Bogie, COO of Building Performance Cooperative, for a jobsite walkthrough that explores how regional building practices, energy codes, and climate considerations influence residential construction. Using a custom home project in Utah as the backdrop, they discuss the importance of continuous air barriers, air sealing strategies, and how design decisions can impact comfort, indoor air quality, durability, and long-term performance. Bogie shares insights from his experience in high-performance construction, highlighting how code adoption differs across regions and why builders should think beyond minimum requirements. Together, they examine the value of early collaboration between designers and builders, with a focus on creating healthier, more resilient homes through better building science.
