In this episode of the Build Show Podcast, Matt Risinger sits down with Matthew Cooper, COO of PEG, and Justin Pratt from Builders FirstSource to discuss how preplanned MEP 

(Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing) design is transforming residential construction. Drawing from Matt’s own ultra-tight .50 ACH Risinger Build, the conversation highlights how digital tools—like Revit and advanced modeling—are making HVAC layouts, material coordination, and on-site execution faster and more precise. 

With PEG supporting MEP planning for over 50,000 homes annually, the lessons shared scale from high-volume production to regional and custom builds. From clash detection and smarter truss integration to improved energy code compliance and construction speed, this episode is packed with insights for builders looking to modernize their process.
