Energy Assessments

There are a handful of specialized tools that are used to diagnose issues within the home. We use a blower door to pressurize/depressurize the home. Once there is a positive or negative pressure on the whole of the home, it is quite easy to identify areas of air infiltration. The manometer will also tell us exactly how much air is passing through freely in spots where it shouldn’t.

Duct blasters use a similar process, but the test is performed on the duct system.

Thermal imaging cameras are a great help in further identifying leaky areas as well as areas of low insulation within the walls and attics.
