Frequently Asked Questions
What is involved in commercial air leakage testing?
Commercial air leakage testing involves pressurising the building using specialised fans and measuring the amount of air escaping through gaps or cracks. We conduct this test to assess the building’s airtightness and identify areas needing improvement for energy efficiency and compliance.
How long does the testing usually take?
The duration of testing depends on the size and complexity of the building, but typically it takes between a few hours and a full day. We plan our visits to minimise disruption to your business operations.
Can air leakage testing help reduce energy bills?
Yes, by identifying points where warm or cool air escapes, businesses can address these leaks to improve insulation and reduce the energy required for heating or cooling, thereby lowering energy costs.
