The Tony Woods Award for Excellence in Advancing the Home Performance Industry recognizes individuals who have dedicated themselves to advancing the home performance industry. This year’s award will be presented at the Affordable Comfort Incorporated (ACI) National Conference in New Orleans, Louisiana, in May.
Nominees will be judged based on criteria such as:
- recognized effort at promoting and advancing quality assurance for the home performance industry;
- development and introduction of new standards and certifications;
- expansion of home performance with EnergyStar programs; and
- demonstrated success in professionalizing the industry.
The late Woods contributed numerous articles to Construction Canada including:
