Blower Door Test

A diagnostic test that measures the airtightness of a building. A calibrated fan is used to depressurise or pressurise the building, and the resulting airflow is measured to determine the air leakage rate.

Acoustic Testing Equipment

Acoustic testing equipment refers to specialised tools and instruments used for precise measurement and analysis of sound properties. It plays a vital role in various industries, including acoustics, engineering, and music, by ensuring accurate sound quality assessment and compliance with acoustic standards.

Heat Transfer Coefficient (U-Value)

The Heat Transfer Coefficient, known as U-Value, measures a material’s ability to conduct heat. Learn how it’s calculated, its significance in building insulation, and how lower U-Values contribute to energy-efficient and sustainable construction.

Air Leakage

Air leakage refers to the uncontrolled movement of air into or out of a building, resulting in energy losses, discomfort, and compromised indoor air quality. Discover the causes, detection methods, and effective air sealing measures to enhance energy efficiency and indoor comfort.

Negative Pressure Test

The Negative Pressure Test, also called a depressurization or blower door test, assesses a building’s airtightness by creating a pressure differential. Learn how it helps identify air leakage, quantify energy loss, and guide targeted air sealing efforts for improved energy efficiency and indoor comfort.
