Blower Door Testing

Why do you need a blower door test?

It’s probably the most valuable tool in our industry. The advantages of blower door testing are pretty cut and dry.  There is no mystery, but the benefits can be critical. Using the results can help prioritize which upgrades someone chooses to make on their home/building. The first advantage while assessing a structure while using the blower door is to determine how “tight” the place is. When we know where the air is coming from and the volume of air, we can design the work scope/upgrades that will make the most sense coupled with the most benefit.

• Increase building efficiency, resulting in less fuel usage
• Save money on utility bills
• Promote better indoor air quality and overall home comfort
• Reduce impact on the environment.
• Increase home’s value 

New construction mandates the blower door test for code compliance.  The blower door test acts as quality assurance. If a new home passes the blower door test, your contractor knew what they were doing, planned accordingly, and did not cut critical corners in insulation but most importantly air sealing.

How do you know you are ready for a blower door test?

A new home has to be near complete for the blower door test.  We could perform the test during stages in construction, but nobody wants to pay for it more than once.
