Building leakage Testing delivers the measure of the infiltration or exfiltration of the air from an HVAC system or a Building. Moreover, this type of testing can help to increase your Energy Rating or Energy Efficiency.
Why is this necessary?
The building leakage testing is a procedure which helps to locate the improperly sealed areas of a building which can have a significant effect on HVAC system performance, energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.
4 Reasons why Building Air leakage Testing should be done:
• Saves building owner money by identifying the energy losses
• Improve the energy rating of your building
• Reduce the cost to owners due to energy losses
• Identify air leakage and drafts in building
