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.
What is an air test?
Air tests assess building airtightness, measuring air infiltration or escape. They guide targeted improvements, reducing heat loss, enhancing energy efficiency, and improving occupant comfort. Regulatory compliance is ensured, and analysis of results informs effective measures for energy-efficient and sustainable construction.
