Energy Analysis

This survey consist of the visual, plus we conduct a blower door depressurization test combined with thermal imagery. This audit is far more advanced utilizing high tech equipment, Blowerdoor, Pressure Meters & Thermal Camera.

Professional energy auditors use blower door tests to help determine a home's airtightness.

These are some reasons for establishing the proper building tightness:

• Reducing energy consumption due to air leakage
• Avoiding moisture condensation problems
• Avoiding uncomfortable drafts caused by cold air leaking in from the outdoors
• Making sure that the home's air quality is not contaminated by indoor air pollution.
• Air Sealing 

How They Work

A blower door is a powerful fan that mounts into the frame of an exterior door. The fan pulls air out of the house, lowering the air pressure inside. The higher outside air pressure then flows in through all unsealed cracks and openings. The auditors may use a smoke pencil to detect air leaks. These tests determine the air infiltration rate of a building.

Preparing for a Blower Door Test     Plus Thermal Imaging

Take the following steps to prepare your home for a blower door test:

• Close windows and open interior doors
• Turn down the thermostats on heaters and water heaters
• Cover ashes in wood stoves and fireplaces with damp newspapers
• Shut fireplace dampers, fireplace doors, and wood stove air intakes.
