Pressurisation

The process of increasing air pressure inside a building relative to the outside. This can be achieved during a blower door test to identify air leakage points.

Continuous Air Barrier

A Continuous Air Barrier creates an uninterrupted layer to restrict air leakage in a building, improving energy efficiency and indoor comfort. Explore the materials, installation techniques, and benefits of a well-designed Continuous Air Barrier system for optimal building performance.

Sound Transmission Class (STC)

Sound Transmission Class (STC) is a rating system that quantifies how effectively a building partition, such as a wall or door, reduces the transmission of airborne sound. Understanding STC is essential for designing acoustically efficient spaces.

Net Zero Carbon

Net Zero Carbon is a climate goal to balance carbon emissions with removals. Learn about the importance of Net Zero Carbon, strategies to achieve it, and its role in combatting climate change and building a sustainable future.

Thermal Envelope

The thermal envelope is crucial for building energy efficiency. Discover its components and importance in reducing energy consumption and enhancing occupant comfort. Improve your building’s thermal performance by implementing proper insulation, air sealing, and energy-efficient windows and doors within the thermal envelope.
